Life / GPS Satellite Navigation systems for driving in Poland [22]
I have a tomtom 910 that I bought 18 months ago. I am not sure if more up to date maps have been released since then. It is possible. Anyway they are doing a lot of work on the roads here and there are a lot of changes however most of the ones I have encountered are new stretches of road which are clearly signposted anyway and lead back to the original road eventually and roundabouts that were once junctions. I live in a small town and the GPS only has 4 or 5 streets on it but it's great for getting around the larger cities. I haven't come across a street in Poznan that wasn't on it and the road layout matches the map. I haven't come across a country road that wasn't on it either but there probably are some. Personally although it's not a perfect match I am really glad I have it. If I'm not worrying about where I am going next, I can worry about the crazy lorry drivers instead.
