Thread: Info on GPS Nav System needed by NOVICE

Hi fellow Landlovers,

Check out LogicGear. www.logicgear.com I did the usual Ebay search but found an Australian company that had better value with local support.
This Aussie company has 3.5" ($199) & 4.3" XL488($359) GPS.
I bought the 4.3" XL488 because it also had Bluetooth for hands free mobile phone connection as well as option($54) reversing colour camera.
After having two trees backing into my Disco TD5, I thought it was about time I took some defence
Both these GPS are unlocked & run WinCE.
What this means is that they can run Oziexplorer (CE).
User manual actually tells you how to run applications other than those suppied.
All you have to do is go to www.oziexplorer.com.au & download the WinCE version. This is only trial, so $40 buys full version.

Next download free maps from Govt site https://www.ga.gov.au/products/servl...EFINE_PRODUCTS

Copy both to 2GB SD (non HC) card & happy days!

Cheers..Bruiser

Well, these LogicGear things were so cheap I thought I'd get one as well as a spare and for offraod maps.

However, it's worth noting the $199 ones are clearance units with 2007 maps. The 2008 maps are now out and are not a free upgrade - so if you want newer maps you'll need to wait for retailers to get them in stock (and likely for more than $199), or you'll have to buy them from Logicgear.
