Does size matter?

    My wife has decided she wants a Sat Nav for her car and of course I'm the one that has to pick it for her and set it up so it will be my fault if I get the wrong one :rolleyes:

    I've a good idea of the features she'll want but one thing I'm not sure of is what size screen to get. Is bigger better? I was thinking along the lines of getting a 6 inch screen (or even 7 inch) but while I'm thinking that will be easier to see and read on the move will a bigger screen get in way and obscure the view of the road or be more difficult to mount?

    Is 5 inch big enough?

    Thanks, exactly where I was looking Garmin nüvi 2545LM looks a possible but I only need the Ireland and UK maps so I'm still looking. Looks like if I go for extra features I'll get the European maps which I don't need as part of the deal.
