Advantages: Great Price Disadvantages: Very Slow to load

The Black Spot and Speed Camera addition was also being given away in the price when I purchased this part of the system I do have some problems with. It picks up Black Spot areas easily and accuratly but it is constantly telling me that there is a mobile police van near even when I am on empty roads so that part I question however I must add that the Fixed Cameras are very accurate and always picked up. This service is easily updated by plugging in via USB to your laptop or PC.
My overall opinion on the RoadAngel is fantastic and better than many systems I have used it has been my angel on my windscreen for 9 months and I feel no need to change it. ...
Advantages: Easy to use Disadvantages: some may want battery life to last longer
I have always wanted a Satellite Navigation (SatNav) device simply because I drive a lot and I am forever getting lost on my route.
I have been searching for a decent SatNav for a long time now, and up until recently the same one has been recommended to me time and time again from people I work with or know. This is the RoadAngel Navigator.
I brought this nifty gadget last week, and I am very please with it.

A brief Intro to the SatNav
-----------------------------------
The RoadAngel Satellite Navigator combines not only up to date speed camera warnings but also accident black spot warning as well.
RoadAngel Navigator is capable of alerting you to the complete range of fixed speed cameras including GATOS, Truvelo, Watchman and SPECS.

Advantages: Speed Camera Detector, Hold onto windscreen well Disadvantages: Slow to start, load routes and enitially gain a satalite signal
Bought one of these when tomtom was lent to my parents, is not as good as i'd expected, slow to load routes, start and get satalite fix. Also the menu is very complicated and doesn't appear to charge very well.
Has sent us some weird routes to get to our destination but i think thats a general satalite navigation thing with all brands as most of them use the same mapping systems.
On he good side it does have a good holder for sticking it to the windscreen although it is rather large.
The best bit has to be the speed camera detector has never failed yet allows plenty of time for breaking sometimes before we have even seen the camera. Has a effective sound to warn you of cameras and tells you what speed limit applies for the area which the speed camera is in.
Also has a usefull anti glare night mode.
I wouldn't recommend ...
The most powerful radar detector money can buy, phenomenal range and sensitivity, detects "multiple threats", provides warning against virtually all speed traps
Very expensive, will not spot the newer SPECS and TRUVELO cameras ( fortunalty they are in limited use), sensitivity comes at a price i e false alarms but you get to learn how to distinguish them.Display angled to the left though not a big issue (*)
