Make sure you get one with version 8 maps, as Garmin have also been supplying older version 7 maps with the i3 at the same time and price - and Garmin have bee misinforming people about future (possible?) free upgrades... The packaging will state which version of map is installed (small print).

Only found out about this after getting a version 7 i3 and then reading articles on Pocket GPS World forum.

Kwik Save have also been seen selling i3's for ?99.....
OK - please don't tell my boss I said this!!! h1d1ng2 It is possible that Somerfield have the older version 7 maps - the way Argos and some supermarkets get cheaper electrical items is by selling the older, soon to be updated versions. :eek: But if you ask to check, at least you will know. The buyer didn't give me the specifics as I guessed you'd all looked them up on the Garmin site. However they are a limited stock and he reckons they will be sold out within a week or so.

The reason Kwik Save also have the same product for the same price it they are part of Somerfield - they just get the cheaper deals on some things first!!!! :bang: :neenaw:
