Is the price with or without Nav soft? If without, it's no good price
.... goes for around 280 Euro on the Continent (Germany).

The Yak 300 GPS is worth it's price. Easy to use (built in
GPS-receiver), the PPC itself is reliable. Only odd thing: If used at
speeds below 5 km/h, it might produce strange positioning, when sat
reception is not so good. Tis is an effect of the Xtrac2 firmware ...

It comes with some sort of software, but I don't know how it compares |

It's a rebadged Mitac Mio 168 which is available in many guises. It's a
good functional PDA / GPS, reviewed on our web site in the Evesham CoPilot
Bundle and as the Navman PiN with SmartST Software.
I don't know what software is bundled in the Toys'R'Us version.
