So . . . unlucky as well as wasteful then, poor youWhich is a shame. I tried to go down the cheap Navigo route and ended up throwing it in the bottom of the drawer. Wish I bought something that wasn't so crap and got a TomTom for only £50 extra.

As they say, mileage may varyEvery other satnav, from budget crap like the Navigos to Garmins, the interface, performance and accuracy has been appalling. I can't believe how bad the Garmins are considering they're on the same level as Tomtom It's worth the extra £50 IMHO, to avoid getting frustrated when you're lost.

ps - my £45 NaviGo is still going strong after about 15 months
I half agree with both of you. I rarely ever use portable satnav's, so bought mine as a backup only, and as such went for the cheap navigo widescreen which i believe is the same as the units which you are talking about, but with a bigger screen?
Anyway, the turbodog software is absolutely balls IMHO, happily the units only run windows ce anyway so will run tomtom. Installed that and its a good little budget unit.
Unfortunately you have to pay quite a bit for the TomTom software, so by the time you have paid for the TomTom software and a Navigo, I might as well buy a TomTom. Unless someone is suggesting I use cracked software?
The only problem I have found with the Navigo units are cheap SD cards bundled with them. Both my missus father's and my unit have had the cards fail.
Happily a replacement, larger capacity, branded card cost me about £3.
