Which GPS Camera detector thingy?
Actually, a couple of questions.
I want the best GPS GATSO etc detector. I am not interested in a radar detector, IMO they are crap.
I have been looking at the obvious 3, Snooper S6, Geodsys (LCD) and the Road Angel. Something tells me I should get the Road Angel, but I am worried that it alarms for cameras on boths sides of the road?
Which should I get? Whats best?
Also, looking at where the electric point is in the car, how do you boys wire in your detectors? I would like them as hidden as possible, but need to move it between two cars if poss?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Is the RA the best one then? What about the RoadPilot? The screen looks a bit big?

Agreed. Had mine for over a year now. Great little device....and Origin are very responsive.
Antenna sits in right hand corner of dash - cable runs in the join twixt dash and body then taped under dash. Unit (lots of legible info) on mount velcro-ed (Origin supplied) under dash to left of steering column, visible through steering wheel. Power cable tucks under centre console en route to power point.
If you frequently change from car to car, buy a spare mount, antenna and power cable.

Here's a comparison chart - I think it is fairly unbiased, the manufacturers' own charts seem to always show theirs are best (funny that!)

The roadpilot is way cool - the screen is it's strong point. It's a touchscreen, and used to control the device. It can be used to compute business / personal / commuting mileage as well.
