Garmin’s Nuvi 265W offers a clean navigating experience with a host of useful features and suffers only a handful of small issues.

A fantastic fitness GPS intended for cyclists, but it’s versatile enough for bushwalking as well

A good training tool with a comprehensive feature set

An inexpensive, neatly designed sat-nav that happens to offer additional travel info if you want it

Buy an Edge and you won’t need to strap another gadget to your bike

We were disappointed with the Que navigation software on Garmin’s iQue 3600, but the Pocket PC version is a step in the right direction.

Garmin is a brand that’s been synonymous with GPS navigation since the days when only mariners were using it. So it’s somewhat disappointing that the iQue 3600 doesn’t compare well to the competition here.

A geotagging GPS that tries to do everything, but overly complicates what should be a simple task of getting from A – Z in a couple of clicks.

Easy to use and performs well. Features are basic but it’s cheap

Smart, clever and capable. A couple of imperfections keep it off the top spot, and we might be tempted by the camera-less S70, but it's a fine choice

A training watch with amazingly advanced exercise-analysis tools

The n35 is a complete navigation kit comprising a capable PDA with integrated GPS receiver (that folds down flush into the back), CoPilot Live 5 software, a sturdy windscreen mount and a cigarette lighter adaptor. At this price, it’s noticeably the cheapest PDA on test.

Packed with features, but it’s expensive and awkward to use

A miniature GPS that mimics almost all the functions of its excellent Big Brother.

The thing that instantly hits you with the Mio 169 is that it’s designed to beused primarily in landscape mode.

Heartily recommended, but not a massive leap forward from the previous version

The Ultimate 9502 is a heavy, chunkier unit that boasts some useful improvements over its predecessor, including classier Foxtel Mobile viewing thanks to better resolution.

A marvel of programming, art and science.
