If you want the SatNav to be totally independent, ie not need an internet enabled phone, then you need a unit like the Go Premium or a previous model like the Go5200/Go5100/Go5000 or the 6” equivalents as they have an inbuilt Mobile Som which communicates with the TT servers. These units will continue to work until such time as the 2g mobile system is turned Off at which point you will need an internet enabled phone or Mifi to continue to get the Traffic services etc.
There are no On Costs for having the inbuilt Sim.
