I am a class 1 HGV Driver. The description you have of the PNN200 sounds just what industry needs. Does the Satnav work in real time and give up to date traffic information?. Does it also recalculate the load weight etc as deliveries are made? The features do sound good however. I will be lloking out for its launch
