gday guys, lookin to buy a gps.
been lookin at a few and this is in my price range.
buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=224

another thing is, do i need external memory? as in memory card slots?
if its recommended i would probably get this one...
buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=8703#specsTab

hell i dont know really, i havent had alot to do with them.
basically i really need the basic usual features for boating/fishing,
but i will also use it when out bush hunting or travelling.
so i would like to have the compass, altimeter, speed/time travelled and that side of things aswell.
reason i mentioned them is i noticed some gps units dont have them features.

any other suggestions? what do you guys think?
cheers!

I think keep your eyes open for a Garmin 12, Garmin 72 or Garmin 76. Cheap, easy to use, they'll do everything you expect of them, and you will get any of them for somewhere between $100-200!

gday there khany54 i have a garmin etrex vista hand held i was trying to sell but had no interest so if u want to come pick it up you can have it free u just need 2 aa batteries for it i live northern suburbs let me know cheers.(will even leave marks in it all local common spots)
but being as this is a.44 magnum,the most powerful handgun in the world,and would blow your head clean off,you've got to ask yourself one question: do i feel lucky? well,do ya, punk?

there are 2 kinds of people in the world,my friend.Those who have a rope around their neck and those who have the job of doing the cutting.

My wife was the best I could get with the boat I had.
