Best nav software for use in the UK?

I've used TomTom before on my iPaq, but now I have a car PC I was wondering what people use for navigation here in the UK?

CoPilot seems to look good, but I didn't want to get the software yet if anyone has any better recommendations for me to consider?

All recommendations welcome!

If it is, I'd like to know where

I've not seen/used a better navigation product in the UK that's better than Tom-Tom!

TomTom is excellent so the first thing I checked was to see if it was available on PC. Has anyone used CoPilot in the UK? That's what everyone seems to be using.

I've used both Destinator and InfoMap Navigator and both work well.

Destinator is much better suited to a touchscreen, whilst the mapping on Navigator is of a higher quality and if used with a keyboard and mouse/trackball it is fantastic.

I struggled with the size of some of the windows and buttons when trying to use Navigator on my 7" TS.

Thanks, I'll check those out. I have got a keyboard and trackball (and touchscreen) but whatever I get has got to look good on a 7" screen.
