As a technology that is based on mobility and navigation - on information that continually updates according to a person\'s location - satnav is the ideal application for that most portable and essential of consumer devices, the mobile phone. The ability to find your way and to communicate where you are, and where you are going, go hand in hand. The new TWIG handset combines the familiarity, portability and ease-of-use of a mobile phone, with the convenience, functionality and responsiveness of true satellite navigation. More than this, though, TWIG takes GPS further, transforming satellite navigation into \"personal navigation\" - that is, connecting you to your surroundings with \"real-time\"� data and services directly related to your exact location. In addition to navigation services such as street mapping and POI (Point of Interest), TWIG provides location-specific functions such as real-time user tracking; and personal location sharing between friends and family. With TWIG, you can find your friends and contact them, all from the same device. TWIG Internet Services lets you find fellow TWIG users, anywhere in the world. Our web services interface allows device owners, friends and family to track and locate TWIG users via any web browser, providing them with peace of mind as to their location and current status Manufacturer\'s Description TWIG - from satellite navigation to personal navigation The market for satellite navigation continues to grow in popularity.

It all works as soon as you turn it on. Clear and LOUD spoken sat nav, various languages, and full postcodes, plus up to date traffic info. And at 200 quid its HALF the cost of others!. Whats cool as well is the GPS profiling, you can choose and create new GPS profiles, eg, super economy mode to conserve battery life. All GPS phones drain batteries quickly but with this feature you can control it well. Of course when you\'re in the car, its on charge all the time anyway so battery life is no issue. When you want GPS and sat nav out of vehicle, eg, biking, walking, finding points of interest, etc, then super economy mode is fine. I was well impressed with the box package as you get everything included, and it syncs brilliantly with a PC. Very fast and easy, all my contacts and images, straight on. Its limited in that there is no camera, and its not great for music, but you dont buy it for that. Probably the best feature of all is the POI points of interest feature where you can type in what you\'re looking for whilst on the move, eg, nearest train station, hospital, restaurant, etc, and it will take you straight there. It also finds other twig users and offers map route to them. You can also send your exact location to anyone, and find others\' locations. Its quite addictive and you find yourself using it just for the sake of it!! I havent used the emergency alert feature yet....and may never do but its good peace of mind. I have designated 2 emergency contacts to receive a text location, and 2-way voice call if pushed in emergency. I guess its useful if you\'re working alone or getting mugged. I tend to think of my twig as a sat nav GPS device, which is also a phone; rather than the other way round. Its not as slim and good looking as modern phones, so dont buy it if you want a fashion device, but its the smallest and best looking sat nav i\'ve seen, and it does everything else i need as well as make calls. I would recommend it to anyone who needs sat nav every day, and wants the benefit of GPS on the go, finding places and never getting lost, on foot, bike, whatever. Also, you eliminate the risk of your sat nav getting nicked from your car since its always with you. The price point makes it a definite bargain.
