    The €99 seems good value and has bluetooth. The main differance is the dearer one has map coverage for Europe.

    Thanks koolkid, do you think the more expensive Garmins use the exact same maps and navigation etc?

    Navigation would be the same. Generally maps are Ireland & UK on the cheaper options. Then Ireland, UK & western Europe (or Europe).
    But Irish mapping would be the same on Irl /Uk map & A European map.
    Some minor graphical details (Like Lake/River colouring etc) may be ommited on smaller units depending on Memory size.
    With TomTom maps for example there is a Western,Central Europe map . There is always a second version of this released for devices with only 2 gb memory & no SD card options.
    Memory expansion is another thing to bear in mind if you plan to add/use other maps.
