I guess you're looking into a dash mount? Bel is owned by Escort, but it's a lower end version so it's not as good generally. The new Escort 9500i is in my opinion the best dash mounted radar detector on the market. The Valentine works well, but from what I've heard it can be very annoying with all the false alarms it has.

It uses GPS to store data. I have the custom install version of that one in my car the 9500CI and it's the best detector I've ever used and I've used a lot of them since I sell them.

i have the 9500i and i love it! that gps feature is cool since i can block out signals like those radar things that tell you how fast you are going and any other false signal that may be around. and just today is saved my butt coming from around a curve some cop was lasering cars.
