I was wondering if anybody has tried the Garmin iQue M5 gps unit. Seems to do just about everything. I'm in the process of making a gps purchase.
Thanks
Brad

Thanks for thte info. Is it a PDA style. I'm wanting to use it for voice directions around town and then be able to use it for off road as
well. I saw a magellan at the Central Coast 4X4 and it looked good but was not going to help my wife around town :))
Thanks

Brad,
If you are looking at that style, also have a look at an acer n35. Very similar to the M5 but $350 cheaper up here in
Brisbane. Have no experience with either unit so can't comment on reliability of either unit, am just looking at the same thing myself.
Cheers Trevor.

HP Have a 6515 PDA coming out. A bloke at work just ordered it.
Its a PDA, Mobile phone and GPS all in one unit. So its like the M5 plus a phone.
Might be worth a look.
Cheers,
Glenn.
