replacement for tom-tom 910

[nervous]

Ive finally managed to persuade the delightful and not-at-all-feckless folks at amazon to take my tom-tom 910 back after 4 months of glitches, faults, frozen screens and generally hilarious hijinks and am now looking for an alternate.

I liked that i could use it as a thing to store music in and i liked the ability to transmit said music through the FM transmitter thingy and having a remote, but other than that, I thought it was pretty shocking. slow, painfully unreliable, got me lost dozens of times and often just plain wrong. and how annoying are the menus? and the fact that you cant turn off the voice instructions without turning off all sound? ooo, and the touch screen which almost willfully selects anything other than you've touched. and the software which crashes every-time you use it. and the woeful fragility of it. still, the blue-tooth phone connection was good if you wanted to convince someone you were trapped in a well and needed them to fetch Lassie.

anyway, what can I have for around the same money (about 300 quid) that will do the stuff I like but none of the stuff i hate? other than a map and a ipod, of course. come on, this is the 80's after all. It needs to be robust, handsome, deadly reliable and accurate and do loads of cool things i didnt realise i needed until i was told they existed. So, a lot like me really.

Thanks in advance,
N.

Thanks, but Ill pass: since she's already touched a Welshman voluntarily she falls into the tiny category of 'women who are too easy'.

My tomtom 910 has a frozen screen after attempting to load the latest software.

I've tried the reset 5 times now.

Next I'm going to get a hammer and smash the fvcker to pieces.

ah, yes. the tomtom maneuver.

there must be another product that can do all of the above without any of the shite?
