Here at girlgeekchic towers we love a good sat nav particulary one that is a) easy to set up and b) easy to use -so we just love the TomTom Start UK entry level sat nav.

It’s functional and stylish but even better is super affordable without compromising on quality.  I found a great deal at Asda where you could pick one up for around £85. It has an easy to use touch screen and simple menu to navigate, so finding your destination has never been easier. The menu has two main icons: plan route and browse map and uses intelligent route planning so if you still get lost with this then frankly you need to just ask for directions.

The UK model includes UK maps but you can get upgrades for this unit if you want to travel farther a field. It is lightweight and compact so wont take up too much space in your handbag and has decent size 3.5 screen. You can choose a variety of changeable colour covers (smartskins) if you fancy a different colour (I chose purple) which come with a colour coordinated pouch for an extra £14.99.

Simple and easy to use, stylish and portable getting to your destination has never been easier.

Based on the TomTom ONE IQ Routes^TM edition*, the White Pearl is the latest offering from Tom Tom and is definitely aimed at the female market. It looks sleek and stylish with its chic pearlescent finish, swirl pattern and matching EasyPort folding mount. And when your’re not using it, you can pop it into its silk, drawstring bag to keep it protected from the depths of your hand bag!!

It also includes some brand new features such as, ‘Places to be seen’ and ‘Shop ‘til you drop’. Covering everything from restaurants, bars, cafes, coffee shops, cinemas and theatres to fashion and home furnishing stores.

One thing that I really like is the Help Me! safety feature, including emergency phone numbers and a ‘Where Am I?’ function particularly useful if you break down and are lost!!

The TomTom White Pearl will be available in June 2009 from www.Amazon.co.uk. The suggested retail price is £179.99. For more information, please visit: www.tomtom.com
