What mapping software does he use on the deLorme in Australia.

I think he may have gotten it (the software) from the states.
Send him a PM, he will tell you!!
Just dont put the batteries in the wrong way, as they dont seem to like that too much.

Sorry, no idea, as ILUV said, pm him. I don't think he checked these hallowed halls often.

Pretty sure he did, I recall him talking aobut having to change it over to our datum and other things which was a bit of a nuisance.

PM sent.
I should have said Maps not mapping software. I know they are NMEA compatible, but I haven't heard of any Aussie topo maps supplied with them either here or in the US. I like the idea of the
PN60w with Spot. Hope the maps are easy to come by.

I would certainly ask them to send you a screen grab of a particular area in Tasmania (from their "world Map series"). This might give you some idea of what the base information is like. I think that some folks who buy these also have access to GIS data and have the add ons to load that as well.

I like to watch....

I just don't have much to say

as Tastrax said, I'm lucky enough to have access to the GIS data for TAS which I was able to crunch into the unit
