darn't buy something that expensive off ebay, don't mind buying cars cos you give them the money when you pick the car up..
unlike a small postable box.
I would no doubt be the one to get shafted!!!

I would say as his dad is 61 year old i would think a PDA would be a bit to much teche to work out, But as TOM TOM is a stand alone Unit it would be best for him.

PC World is the best that is where i got mine from.

PS any One reading this know where i can get the USA Maps from

Fair comment, but he doesnt have to know the PDA inside out, its just as simple to work out how to use Tom Tom on a PDA as it is on the stand alone unit... Then gives him the potential to learn more if required....
