I have a 10" HP tablet PC in the for sale section running ozi with full up to date Hema mapping if you are interested :) All you would need is a USB or bluetooth GPS to complete the set-up.

I wouldn't recommend going this route. Most half reasonable tablets have a built in GPS these days and don't cost much more that a USB/Bluetooth GPS alone. Plus there is potentially a lot of pain with software drivers etc.
Here you go. Mapconnect is a bit fiddly to get your mind around when you first use it, but after a while makes sense.Quote:

There's a lot of uses for a laptop or the little net books beside Nav stuff... As I said I use both the phone is a lot easier to use... But I wouldn't go on a long trip without something to store photos on& email n banking.... I do like the idea of being to scan n load older paper maps... It's surprising what you find on them.....there was some link between mud map and vms early on , I think that died out , and while mud map are trying to say that iOS 8 won't run there mapping I'm using it on this trip.....
Ps there's a patchy covering of 1 :100 000 to no idea where I got it from I could wack it on a disk if ha you go the tablet / comp with ozy x way.....must dash the Muscat is getting to cold
For our last trip I ran a cheap Aldi 10" android tablet.
Oziexplorer app and
cheap bluetooth gps sitting on the dash.
Others just ran the internal gps, they all performed well.
Cost other than the tablet $25 for Ozi and around $60-100 for the BT-GPSr
Most of the maps you would need can be got for next to nothing.
GA 1:250k are free to download. Look for the seamless zone maps ie Zone 56 through to Zone 49

Is this configuration a plug and play between the external gps and Oziexplorer?

FYI: I purchased Mud Map some time ago to use on my iPad. Recently Apple updated their operating system. I received an email from Mud Map saying thanks for your support (read 'money') but we will no longer support the old operating system. Buy the new version of MudMap ($100) if you want to. They offered a $25 discount as I had already bought their expensive app.
What's to stop them doing this again? Nothing. They did not even reply to my very civil email.
In conclusion, I will not be giving them any more money. I'll stick with OziExplorer which I have or HEMA if I need it.
I never thought MudMap was all that good anyway.
