UK speed limit database available?

I would like to have some GPS software which could tell me what the speed limit is on any road. I could then have a warning if I am exceeding the speed limit by say 5mph (in case the wife was'nt there to do it :-)). It would probably need to be an overlay or points of interest database. Does anyone know if there is such a thing?

I know that Destinator can give you warnings if you are over the speed limit. I've never turned them on, so I don't know at what point it will tell you...but maybe you should just keep an eye on the speedo and the road signs
