Both Road Angel and Snooper have stand alone units and both provide ways to adapt
a mobile `phone via the car`s bluetooth connectivity.
The stand alone units need positioning just behind the windscreen where they can see
the sky, normally having the disfiguring (to my mind) windscreen suckers. These also
have the disadvantage of needing removal, when parking, to discourage opportunistic
thieves causing damage to get in the car.
The mobile units, utilising a mobile `phone appear not to be so restrictive in positioning,
as the signal is coming through the car`s system.
Has anyone experience of the latter or can say whether or not they are equal in
effectiveness with the stand alone ones? If that is the case, the advantages of the
mobile `phone approach appear decisive.
