Hi Richard.
I’d say the IPhone without a shadow of a doubt if your looking for value and
longevity, though there is a small cost in addition to the phone to get the
required GPS software that’ll guide you from door to door. You’ll also have to
invest the time in learning the interface, but the pocket computer that the
IPhone is will do so so much more for you than a dedicated GPS receiver.
However, that said, if you don't want to learn a new interface or want a simple
approach to address entry then a blindness specific product like the Trekker
Breeze would do you just fine.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi,
What do people think is the best GPS solution for a blind pedestrian these
days?
I've never seen anything sufficiently accurate that I could rely on, but there
must be something out there.
I've been thinking about the Trekker Breeze, but wondered if there was anything
better; would consider getting and iPhone if that was a runner, as it would be
cheaper than the Breeze, which seems to be just under £600 with the new
postcode support once it's available.
