Whats the N95 sat nav like, does it also show speed cameras?

Going to be using it for work for deliveries so need it to be quite good really this is why im thinking of just getting a separate sat nav? Any one got one that does euro and shows speed cameras? What would you recommend?

it does the same as the rest just shows static speed camera's not much difference between then tbh.

if you dont like the built in gps software for the nokia you can always install tomtom or something else.

not sure if tomtom have software for the N95 yet (?). Personally i would just get a dedicated Sat Nav, something like a tomtom. There all pretty much like for like, the only thing i have found is that Garmin have slightly better maps when abroad (found that out in morocco a few months back) and noticed that theres a bit of lag on a TomTom 500, especially when going around roundabouts.

Tomtom dont have softwear for the n95 yet.
Id say get a dedicated satnav, n95 gps is realllllly slow, and doesnt talk to you, so if ure using it in ure car (which i am guessing you are doing) its pointless

N95 as a phone is good tho
