I may be in the market for one of these newfangled satnav gadgets (what with it being 1999 an' all
). Having looked around on the Interweb, I'm more confused than ever.
So, priorities in order of importance:
1. The ability to look at an OS or equivalent map, and to adjust my route, while on the road.
2. The ability to enter a destination and have the device come up with a half-sensible route from where I happen to be, which I can modify as I see fit (see priority 1).
3. Cycle computer-type data (distance, time, average speed, ideally total ascent, odometer, that sort of thing).
4. On-the-go directions on a map display or via voice prompts.
5. Advanced training data or the ability to link to heart rate, calories etc not important at all.
Not spending £STUPID comes somewhere between priorities 1-3.
What should I get? I don't mind whether it's Garmin, Bryton or something else but Garmin seems to be the current industry standard, no?
