VMS GPS's

Hi Tony

I have a VMS 3000. Installation was easy and it has proven very reliable.
Not overly impressed with the off road mapping so I may change to Ozi.
I use it as my back in remote areas.

Hi Tony
Get in contact with John R (member from Victoria) He uses one an will give you the run down on what you require.

Cheers

Hi Tony.

I have one of the older models of VMS' product. I am still happy that I bought it for the right reasons for my circumstances.

The number one priority for me was an integrated Oziexplorer solution to replace the GPS/PDA solution I previously used. Second priority was the other features: radio, iPod compatible, bluetooth integration, street navigation.

My version of the product has a number of issues that appear to have been fixed in the new version. I think the new version could be improved by choosing better quality components and by better quality programming and integration. Others will comment that it is expensive compared to do-it-yourself solutions.

But as I have said, I am happy with the purchase and recommend it to others that want a solution with Oziexplorer as the priority.

Cheers

Tony, I have one and some of the pictures are in my Profile page.

I have been very happy with the system and it's capability. I have a 3000 Mk II. It takes a little time to get used to the systems as they are stripped down Windows CE - no Windows interface, but a specially designed one.

If you are used to the better Navigational software, I love NavNGo iGo8 software for turn by turn navigation. I didn't like the Memory Map software so am using OziExplorer software instead. There is no support on that software from VMS, but it is well supported around the world without that.

I had a problem with a radio but that was quickly replaced. The VMS crowd are real triers so really good luck to them. Professional with it too.

Thanks Stephen, Rod and John.

John I also sent you some mail.

Thanks again Gents

Tony
