Snooper S6-R Neo. A combination of both Radar/Laser detector and GPS units.

Yep, Road Angel (£350?) and laser jammer/diffuser (£250?). Contact www.blackspot.com for retailer details.

It has to be S6R-Neo.

Only £69 dearer than Road Angel, it requires no PC to update (Built in Modem) it is an infinately better unit and comes with the top of the range laser and radar detector too.

You can't go wrong, although due to popularity and an issue with the second batch there are supply problems.

If your anywhere near me and want a demo let me know.

It depends on the kind of driving you will be doing,plenty of driving on unknown roads then geodosey might be better than a snooper, local/known roads then radar detector is of more use,you 'need' both really ,but vascar (time between two given points on the road) is only thwarted by not speeding,so be carefull whatever.Geodosey is good and hasn't missed a camera yet

Matty01 - You are obviously not familier with the Snooper S6R-Neo, It is as good, if not better than the Geodosy as not only is it GPS driven as is the Geodosy but it also has RLD protection too.

Thats why as I said above - it's better!!!

Ok Mr Tetchy, . Didn't say it was better than the S6R-Neo just a better type of system (ie radar/gps/laser/etc)if driving on unknown roads.The S6R-Neo combined system sounds pretty handy(take two bottles into the shower/car...not me )
Although having re-read your post at only £69 more than road angel, it would be difficult to justify buying two seperates or one system alone,over the S6.
