The Explorer
Hello
Everyone loves a milestone - Screenshot from
OziExplorer's website.Ozi 20 Years
I have been using it for 18 years (work and play) and must say I'd be lost without it (no pun intended).
Cheers
Greg

Hi Greg,
It's a great package, I've been using it since 2002.
The best upgrade I did was when I got a little PDA and was able to use it with moving map and waypoints - that was pretty cool. Prior to that I could only plan on
my home PC, and upload wpts to my little Etrex.
The Andriod package is great to, where the screen designer gives me most of what I want on my tablet.
I'm still discovering new features now and then - One was Project Manager, which you Greg told me about on this
forum a year or so back.
Cheers
Alan

Yep, bought my CD on 9th April 2002 from Cartographics in Unley Road,
Adelaide.

I have had a copy on something electronic since the early days and still love the product. When we sailed from Copenhagen to Oslo last year they had a moving map on the Cruise ship and guess what??? It was running OziExplorer!!
Des Even gave me a new access code for nix when I changed over from one Andriod tablet to the new one. Great service and happy to support him

How time flies. Remember those late night, I mean early morning, sessions.
Good on you

Absolutely wonderful product, nothing comes close to it. It's certainly gotten me into (and out of) some wonderful
places I'd never otherwise have found. Sincere thanks Des

Quite simply an amazing product. Knowing exactly where you are all the time gives you great confidence. I dare say I would not have gone to so many
places without Oziexplorer and would have missed out on seeing so many great
places. It is incredible how you can be driving along for many hours on a track in the middle of a desert and you can say just around the next corner there is a road
junction, and sure enough there is. I can see that as I get older I will be travelling the outback a lot longer because of the confidence and safety that this product gives you. Des for PM I say.
