Sat Navs have increased in ability and dropped in price each year just recently - I have found them so useful when travelling as they can direct you to the closest place to eat or nearest petrol station, I have had the one fixed into the vehicle and a hand held one for wandering on most trips in the past year or so. I tend to wander about towns looking at the changes in architecture and thinking more about the development of the different areas of the place, locating the old marketplace and coaching inn for instance, traces of bygone industry, and to be able to use the Sat Nav to give me a direct path to where I left the car rather than retracing my often erratic route saves time and worry.

I love maps - I have a set of small scale OS maps of the entire country, but the Sat Nav is a great addition to the enjoyment of the moment.
