Tom Tom nav systems
 
>>i don't know how much truth there is in this, but i head a rumour that the maps weren't all that accurate once you get out of the cities. i heard (read?) that someone was sitting on an inland highway, and the maps had him driving through a big lake!<<!

T'was I! The "Sensis" (Part of Telstra, I think) mapping for the Navman is pretty ropey in some parts outside metro areas.

I bought a Mio from JB hifi and it is perfect, finds what I put in and takes me straight there, some of the really new houses are not on it but you can update it from the internet. It has good features like Favourites and Trip Planner too.
No complaints here
