i already have 2 gps,s one i bought and the other came with my defender
im no techno boffin
and im still trying to get one to talk with the laptop

so if i could get something to make life easy for both of us sweet

I have a TomTom 910 - great for normal roads/direction - absolute crap for anything slightly off the track so to speak, but nice little toys - works as a blue tooth for the phone, has a 20 gb hdd that will hold and play MP3's and movies !!!

.............but in the world of serious GPS it's an expensive toy.

I also have a Garmin Quest 2, and it's great for tracks, even farm gate lanes down to the river, the normal road performance isn't too bad.

It's also waterproof to a level. When I rolled my D1 off a bridge into a river bed, the Garmin was below the water in the gooey mud. Wiped it off and still worked perfectly.

It's totally portable and can be fitted in bikes/motor bikes as well as sitting in your pocket. Has a 20 hr battery life before recharging. The screen mount is also pretty strong.
