PDA, Sat nav, What have you, What's best?

Firstly, I don’t know whether this should be here or on the computer etc. forum but sorry if I’m wrong!
I would like to know which is the best way to find my way around France. I think I’ve got a job to start on fairly soon over here but it is 20 odd years since I drove over here in anger so to speak and even some of the towns seem to have moved! :confused: but that might because of the drink - either then or now :wink: The job is going to be multidrop! (in for a penny) so I need some help preferably with a ■■■■ voice - male or female (don’t knock it till you’ve tried it). I’ll either need to buy it over here or on t’internet but I would prefer it to work in English! Please don’t suggest anything too technical 'cos I am too old for that :blush: nor too expensive :cry: and lest you ask I haven’t got a laptop - no room for one on my rather broad lap :wink:
Appreciate any help you lads and lasses can offer me.
Ta Rob.
