Exact same price - which would you pick Garmin Nuvi 200W or Tomtom One v3?

    Hi there - looking for a cheap and cheerful Sat Nav for car. Came across these 2 for same price:
    1)Garmin Nuvi 200W UK & Ireland
    2) TomtomOne GB & Ireland Classic v3

    I will be using this mainly in Ireland and possibly in the UK, but Irish use is my primary interest right now. I've used / seen both sorts in the past and know they have benefits when compared to each other. But at the same price, for me it really boils down to which people think provide the better and more accurate mapping.

    If you had to pick between these 2, at the one price which would you go for and why?

    Thanks!
