In October Which? will publish a report on speed cameras. I hope they have requested information from Safe Speed. I know the ABD have made an input.

It would be interesting if "Which?" did a report on the various types of GPS and laser speed camera detectors.

I subscribed to Which? a few years back and ound it to be complete rubbish.

A lot of their reports are the result of asking for readers feedback, so you ended up with ridiculous situations like a Goodmans TV being voted best buy when it was up against some clearly superior opposition.

I also found their computer reports worthless for the same reasons.

If they could actually get some independant experts to review them it might be worthwhile. However, I supect they would just poll their readers and say which one do you think is best?

Not really worth it.

Ooohhh, reader feedback on Gatsos, that edition would be a best seller surely :D

Wozzer of Newcastle wrote "Wayay canny lad, the flash was sur bright I nearly dropped ma bottle o Newky Brown"

Jez of Liverpool said "Fookin photos were crisp an clear like. I though, darrel gemme a fine for sure"

And finally, a gentleman called Cpt Gatso said "Fantastic build quality, needed a diamond tipped 8" angle grinder to cut the b*st&rd down"

:D
