Just been wondering whether or not it's worth allowing myself to be dragged a bit further into the modern age for my planned Euro tour. I've read quite a lot on how sat nav would be especially handy when arriving in larger towns/cities to help find hotel locations etc. Also, there's a last-minute bookings site that might be useful, so internet could also be very helpful (plus staying in touch on the forums I use). Not to mention keeping track of the weather to help with contingency planning on the fly.
Soooo, what kind of system should I be looking at? I really have very little experience of all this gadgetry, even my current mobile phone is something from the dark ages! What kind of cost? (this could well be the point which decides for me which system I might plump for, or indeed, whether I get anything at all). If it means more than one unit, I'll probably give it a miss entirely. If it means replacing my current mobile, I'll consider it, but also would want to keep any monthly payments pretty low.
If answering, please bear in mind you're talking to a gadget-dimwit, terminology needs to be basic or explained!
Cheers
Nick
