Also, does anyone have any idea how much data the GPS function uses? I won't be going more than a couple of hours from London.

thanks

Pick up a Lyca or a Lebara sim card. They are usually around 99p and both offer various data plans. Just see which one suits you.

I would say you need around 100mb but both operators offer a 500mb plan for £7.50 so you will have to go for this one.
