Garmin nuvi 760 review
Reviews Voice directions were spoken clearly and it does feature text-to-speech for pronouncing road names, which is extremely useful for navigation around round-abouts or complex junctions. The FM receiver tapped into our car's spare radio frequency for...

TomTom GO 920T review
Reviews Voice directions were spoken clearly and its text-to- speech for pronouncing road names was accurate and useful for navigating around complex junctions or roundabouts. The TMC/FM receiver with no subscription fees could pick up local as well as...

Mio H610 review
Reviews It can certainly help in a pinch, especially when coupled with the voice-guided directions, but you'd have to look pretty closely at the screen to see everything on the map, and that's not exactly the safest thing to do while you're driving.

Mio DigiWalker C320 review
Reviews Spoken directions are comprehensive, but occasionally poorly timed, warning pointlessly about mini roundabouts a long way ahead, or only giving directions when right on a turn. Sat-nav is moving out of the white van and into the convertible, with a...

TomTom GO 930 Traffic review
Reviews Voice directions were spoken clearly and its text-to-speech for pronouncing road names was clear. Additionally, the FM receiver is useful for piping voice directions via our car's speakers. TomTom is an excellent sat-nav manufacturer, bringing out...

Reviews The One has the ability to calculate directions by fastest route, shortest route or avoiding motorways. You can choose to have driving directions presented as text or images. Of course, in addition to the visual prompts, you get spoken, turn-by...

Yamaha YSP-1100 review
Reviews There are 40 small drivers that are used to push sound out in various directions -- this is what creates the surround sound effect from a single location. We've seen many designs for virtual speaker systems, and most televisions come with...

Garmin iQue 3000 review
Reviews Though the speaker is located in the back, the directions come through loud and clear, and you have a choice of 11 languages. It's just as useful for keeping a calendar and an address book as it is for finding your way in the world, plus the system...

Reviews The Orange HTC TyTN II doesn't come preloaded with any sat-nav software so you'll need to buy your own, although you can use the free-to-download (not including data charges) Google Maps app to track your location and give you directions.For more...

iRiver Clix 2 review
Reviews Pushing the screen in any of four directions allows you to navigate through the various menus of the Clix, and it's incredibly easy to use. The Clix 2 -- officially called Clix 2nd Generation -- is the younger brother to the hugely successful and...

iRiver Clix 2 Red Line 8GB review
Reviews Pushing the screen in any of four directions allows you to navigate through the various menus of the Clix, and it's incredibly easy to use. Even now, the Clix sits in CNET.co.uk's MP3 channel with one of the highest ever scores.

Kodak EasyShare M1073 IS review
Reviews At the back there's a small mode wheel, which doesn't get all the way round in both directions, and a milled silver clickpad. The Kodak EasyShare M1073 IS is a 10.2-megapixel point-and-shoot. We've seen some scorching-hot cameras from Kodak in...

Canon PowerShot A580 review
Reviews The mode dial, which offers common scene modes and manual or automatic settings, makes an initially satisfying, later annoying clicking noise when turned, but at least it goes around 360 degrees in both directions.
