GPS sat nav hire?

[killian]

Can anyone recommend somewhere in the UK or the US to hire a GPS Sat Nav for use in a hire car? I had planned on hiring the GPS device available from OrlandoVillas however they have a policy of not shipping to Ireland.

Rather than risk posting a link on here, maybe anyone with a recommendation or suggestion could send me a DM.

Hello,
we can ship to Northern Ireland but not Southern Ireland. ~The mail is too unreliable to garantee deliveries on time. If you can find an insured, guaranteed service we will happily send you a unit.

fro an extra $10.00 a day, you can pick one up at any car hire pick up center. If you travel often, you are better off buying one...

Hi, I was in the same position as you looking to rent a Sat Nav. You can rent from Avis can rental for $15 per day. However for someone who travel a lot, I did some research and decided to buy a Tom Tom Go 300. You might be better off buying one. Tom Tom Go 300 is easy to use, light, and not complicated at all. It is not a fixed one, you get a UK map with it and you can carry it around. You will have to buy a USA map or download it through the internet.
The tom tom is brilliant, it also has POI Places of interest, restaurants, nightclubs, amusement parks, shops, churches everything is in their. On the POI, you can type Italian buffet, and all the Italian buffet in the whole city will come up, or breakfast and all the breakfast will come up. It is like carrying a Thompson Directory around with you. It is brilliant. This is one of the best things I have ever invested my money on.
