Over the weekend, Pocket GPS World announced that they have entered into a partnership with Inforad, such that Inforad now use the Pocket GPS World safety camera database on their hardware units.  Pocket GPS World have had their database available for many years as a download for use with software devices and many hardware SatNav units, but it’s now available for these dedicated camera alert devices.

Inforad seem to have a couple of different devices available for sale, with their simplest (and cheapest) device even having a built in battery to save the need to connect to the cigarette lighter all the time, and their devices come with lifetime camera alert database subscriptions, so for £40 or £50 you can buy a device with lifetime access to their chosen database (which is now Pocket GPS World’s, and based on our experience of that database, it will stay with them for many years to come).

Update: We’ve had it confirmed that this deal is initially only for 1 year, and that Inforad will use the Pocket GPS World database alongside their own.
