Garmin cfQue 1620 Take-up?

Garmin cfQue 1620



Is the Garmin cfQue 1620 too late with the CF form factor?, will it eat your PPC battery? Nice to have the Garmin Mapsource functionality on your PPC though? For 200 GBP it is not bad, but if you are in the market to upgrade, would you rather a Mitac Mio 168, Ique 3600 or Navman PiN?, they are double the price but more compact and "out of the pocket" functionality may appeal more? Maybe the Motorola MPx with bluetooth GPS is more your cup of tea?

Update: Note that the que software can not be used with another GPS source, e.g. you can not use it with a Mitac Mio 168 / Navman PiN, only the cf Que receiver, which is a shame!

Garmin iQue 3600 Redu$ed

Garmin iQue 3600 UK



Expansys appear to have the best deal on the iQue @ 346.77 GBP (407.45 GBP incl. VAT). A good deal by all accounts? Shame about the reported battery life (1hr) and querky use of waypoints (all held in address book). Still want one though!

NavMan PiN hits USA

NavMan PiN USA



Navman PiN now available in the US for 499 USD. That is about 275 GBP so you could get the US version and buy Navman Europe, thus getting US & Europe mapping for the same price as a UK version? Any reports on battery life yet?

Expansys.co.uk have a good deal on Uk version right now @ £369.95 GBP
