Just received my Qantas frequent flyer update & they have Navman S150 that I can swap for 50,000 points.
I have always used my GPS & moving map on PC. Can the Navman S150 up load topo maps. Had a look at their website, but no joy there
Regards
Vince

You have to 'unlock it' first, then you can run oziexplorer or similar. Unlocking basically lets you boot into windows. Google navman unlock. I used this 1 on a s90

How's thinds in FNQ Doug?
In my past life(pre retirement) I flew all the time so have over 600000 points. I dislike longhaul flights so will only use to fly around Oz to visit children, so will take a wile to use up points. It looks like a good deal if I can use with Ozexplor

The mio unlock is much better than the navman unlocked hack.
I have posted info on how to do it to the S series here:

Pat
Thanks for the information so far. I used the links you provided & downloaded the unlock.
The files are all l on the micro Sd card BUT the S150 still operates as normal.
When I hook the S150 to the PC via the USB I can see the SD card there with the files BUT still no joy with running anything other than the normal sat nav.
As this is the case I have not yet tried to load Ozi or any additional maps.
Can you Help
Regards
Vince
