Well it worked fine - didn't have any issues picking up the satellites. Now my car is a cabrio so not quite so much metal in the roof but I had the gps receiver tucked well under the windscreen (so not reachable if I've the roof down by tea leaves).

Like the idea of the Go all in one solution, and noticed they've now launched CDs with street level mapping within Europe - if I get a big enough SD car could I put these all on one SD and use it to direct me round my pan-European jolliday?
