USA Europe Satnav

I need a Sat Nav system that I can use in both Europe and USA I have seen 2 the TT 910 and the Nuvi 270 my problem is choosing of course but also I have seen prices range from £224 to £400 why the big difference am I missing something is there different systems does TomTom 910 have different specs.

Re: USA Europe Satnav

I can thoroughly recommend the Garmin 670.
It comes with UK european and USA maps already installed.
It has Safety (Speed) Camera warning installed (free for 6 months)
Bluetooth capability if you have a suitable mobile phone.

I have used this Garmin in the USA, I.o.M, England and Wales this year and found it to function perfectly. A real test in New York when I doubted it, I spoke for it and said, "Trust me I'm a Garmin"

Re: USA Europe Satnav

i dont need Europe but I do need one for the US and the UK - i do not mind swapping maps etc but which is the best.

Do I buy something in teh US and then buy UK maps or the other way round or get both.

And which one?

Re: USA Europe Satnav

The Garmin 670 is my first Sat Nav unit and I am well pleased with it.

It came with:

City Navigator Europe NT V9. ( This includes the UK )
City Navigator North America NT V8.

They are available on the Garmin website and I believe the Garmin Customer Helpline is very user friendly.

If you need Maps for anything other than Garmin, there maybe other lower cost options

I hope this info is of some help to you
