Julian,

Is the I3 weatherproof, or or you not planning to venture out if it rains?

Paul

Don't think so If it rains heavily I'll cover it with a freezer bag.

Have just acquired Garmin i3 - will try out tomorrow - with freezer bag and safety cable....

Can you get European maps for it?

Ade.

Used the Garmin i3 this morning for a meeting out in Hayes...

Not sure about fixing to the tacho glass - vibes and that.. so stuck the unit in the plastic envelope of the BMW tank bag angled towards me. Secure and waterproof

Worked a treat - its a bit further to glance down than I'd like but was ok in practice as the display is pretty clear. You can just hear the nice lady's voice when in town, on the open road forget it...

Having never had sat nav and having spent many hours circling my intended destination previously, I am well impressed.

Should be ideal for my main use which is being (no longer) lost in London and the SE so battery life (6hrs) should never be a problem and planned routes irrelavent.

And its tiny which is brilliant.
