I've just got a Nokia 5230 and tne sat nav is very good. So good my sat nav could be redundant. And the Ovi maps update for free, so its got all the new roads in our area. Get a 12v charger and charge it on tne go. Also, the directions come through the blue tooth headset which means I can hear it with the radio on. And tne screen rotates as you turn the phone. Not bad for £80 on my sim free contract.

Ok, out the window, .......better get busy writing a risk and method statement concerning the Manual Handling of said TV's to the window ledge and further the risk of slips, trips and falls whilst tossing said TV's out the window. Best be careful and set up a road closure and a site compound excluding members of the public from the 'landing zone' just in case :roll:
