Default Speed Camera Warning Devices ?

As I am on the new drivers 2 year law and already have 3 points if I get 3 more I will lose my licence. (And have got 22 Months to go) I am scared to go exploring on my bike. I need a device that can reliably warn me of fixed speed cameras.
I don’t have a lot of money so the cheaper the better.
If you guys have got any suggestions/recommendations I would appreciate it. ** To do with a Device / not telling me to open my eyes / Keep to the speed Limit ect ect lol **
A device with a sat-nav would be nice I have seen some in Halfords but they was very expensive £400-500 pounds any one know of any that will do a similar job for £200 or so .

cheers ant .

if its just for the fixed cameras then most sat navs have them on, and you can pick them up for around £ 100 .

Observations and keeping to the speed limit/speed of traffic are cheaper

Sorry, even with your "disclaimer" it is still going to be said.

You already have the devices you need - they are called "eyes" (to pay attention to your speedo) and a "throttle" to control your speed.

Not really difficult or any extra expense.

However a reasonably cheap device is an Inforad, which I have fitted on my bike - and heres one on ebay for £35 - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/INFORAD-M-1-GP...d=p3286.c0.m14

Any of these devices reply on a Database - which wont help you with mobile cameras, cop cars or Mr Plod at the side of the road with a hair-dryer.

Hence the 1st part of the reply.

BTW I had my 1st 3 points on my Bike license within a month of passing too, fortunately I had had a licence for over 15 years at that point, so the other 3 I got 6 months later didnt put me off the road

I, and plenty others, have the Inforad.
OK, it is a bit basic but my reasoning was that if it warns me of 1 camera that I would have missed then it has been worthwhile.
And, it has warned me of a couple of cameras that were "hidden" a bit so money well spent in my eyes.
