Hello Chris

I'll top post as that will be quicker.

We've already opted to dismiss the Captain GPS as everybody we've spoken too 
who has one has only negative comments to make about it. As for the Breeze, 
very interesting. Again, you're the first person we've heard who doesn't like 
it. As for needing one right now, well; I cannot say much on list. Suffice it 
to say that we cannot afford to wait too long.

Lynne,

Kapten GPS is a pile of french s.... ahem!  I sent mine back.

Mind you, I am not impressed with the breeze either.  It totally needs a 
redesign.  It is basically a Nokia Symbian phone in a different body, and now 
they have added postcode support I find it a bit more useful but think they 
should add either a real numeric keypad or a qwerty keyboard.  I find the 
current button layout to enter text and numbers a bit of a after thought.  I 
also feel the unit is over priced and think they should merge the device with 
the victor stream with it's lovely keypad.

Unless Gordon really needs one right now, then just wait as I feel there are 
other GPS systems in the pipeline and there are some pretty good ones coming 
out for Android too which potentially could work out cheaper than the breeze.
