The hottest Christmas gifts for this year: Sat Navs If you've got long distance friends or relatives coming to visit you this Christmas you can be sure that a Sat Nav system will be a popular gift, if only to help them get back home!


Sat Navs and GPS have been wildly popular since they first appeared in cars helping people with directions to their destination of choice, but they have come a long way since then too. Next generation Sat Navs, which are expected to be huge this Christmas, can include anything from 3D maps to live traffic information. If you've got plenty of cash to splash it can be worth picking up a top-of-the-range Sat Nav for £200-£400.


However, sometimes technology is best kept simple and there are more affordable models on the market that retail at around £100. So which system should you opt for? Here are some of the best:


- TomTom sat nav- The Dutch manufacturer's name has become synonymous with high quality navigation systems and in particular the TomTom GO which is an all-in-one GPS device. The latest models are the TomTom GO 740 Live the TomTom GO 940 Live (both of which include safety alerts, fuel prices and local search with Google.


- Mio Satellite Navigation- Mio satellite navigation aims to provide ‘technology to help you explore the world' and it has a range of car navigation products available. One of the best is the Mio C250 which has a 3.5 inch touchscreen making it easier to use than most devices and has a unique traffic message channel which helps users pick alternative routes based on traffic jams and hold-ups. Something many of us could use on our daily commute!


- Navman sat nav- If you prefer to keep things simple with technology then the Navman S30 is one of the more stylish and affordable models around. It's slim, light with an easy to use menu and a crisp clear map display on a 3.5" touchscreen, providing powerful navigation without emptying your wallet. Also look out for the Navman S30 3D, which has cool new features such as pop-up landmarks and 3D maps.


- Garmin sat nav- Another option if you want a straightforward device that just gets the job done is the Garvin Nuvi 250 Sat Nav. It comes with preloaded European maps, a touchscreen and gives you alerts about safety cameras and school zones.


There are some extras on there too - including a world travel clock with timezones and a currency converter. A Tomtom sat Nav is a great idea but do not forget about a Garmin sat Nav as they also are of a high quality. Find the best deals on all Sat Nav online.
