If you do a bit of research these are well worth having. Under £40 delivered.

Nice one. That's the cheapest I've seen it (otherwise £49 + p&p at ebuyer.com) and it's the one that you can run TomTom on too. It even includes a screen mount!

That's why they're cheap then.

I went to buy a Trace Elliot bass amp once and I went to one shop that were knocking them out for £650. Except they were out of stock. I went to another place and they were in stock for £725, so I said to the bloke "They're only £650 down the road". He said "Why don't you get one down there then?", "Because they're out of stock" I replied. So he said "Yes, mine would be £650 as well if I didn't have any"

Like Fordie, I got the out of stock email from Smiths.

Today I have just got an 'Item Dispatched' email. Should be with me in 1 to 3 days. Looks like Smiths have sourced some more supplies.

Just got mine this afternoon, played about with it and it looks OK.Yet to give it a test run. Certainly a bargain for £40. Could even fix it on the bike ? 4D
