Its not the existence of £60 GPS's that worries me, its peoples total reliance on them.

I think you are maybe overplaying the reliance. I have a plotter and backup gps, but am in no way reliant on them. I've been navigating by chart/map since I was 10, and have not lost those skills, and many I know are exactly the same. The convenience of a plotter or gps is very handy, but if they were taken away tomorrow, I wouldn't worry about it, I'd just have to work a bit harder at navigation.
