Traffic Camera detectors?

Any suggestions anyone? Assuming there is no third party software that links into Audi's SatNav to warn of fixed cameras? I guess without even TMC working, cameras are way down the list! Have seen the RoadAngel product which looks ok, wondering what else is out there in the mrkt.

This looks rather nice, bit more compact that the R.A, just came out ; SNOOPER Sapphire.

I think it's appalling that a car costing £50,000 with an expensive SatNav add on optional extra still doesn't have the same functionality as a £300 or £400 TomTom which then requires drivers to buy addional GPS units such as the Road Angel or Snooper.

I have an original RA, would advise to read plenty of reviews before buying a Snooper (previous GPS units not so hot), I would personally go Origin B2 or whatever their latest equivalent is.

I just installed an origin b2 solo at the weekend. Would highly recommend it over everything else I have tried (including snoopers and road angels). Personally, would go for the regular origin b2 if I was buying again, although both that and the solo have identical functionality.
Got it off ebay brand new for £150, although warranty is only 28 days on units not bought through a genuine reseller. Regular price is around £275 now I think (with 2 year warranty).

I have experience of Road Angel and TomTom with camera database and Road Pilot. The RoadPilot Pro is by far the best option in my opinion.
