Is anyone using Ozi on a Android Tablet yet? Was wandering how easy is it to load the new Ozi soft ware for the Android? I have all the other Ozi soft ware.
I have been looking at a 10.2" screen, but am worried about the size sitting on the dash, you can buy a car mount holder for them.

Still to buy jLAU, have picked out a couple on E.Bay for around $240. The only thing is to choose from a 7" or 10.2" the screen res on the 7" is pretty good, (checked a mates out) so the 10.2" should be better.

Do what I did.
Go to a Hardly Normal store, they have the Tablets connected to the internet and the sales guys leave you alone after a few minutes. Then down load it. You can try it for yourself.
I did it a while ago on a previous verson which didn't suport tablets and it looked terrible. Haven't tried it lately. Take a map with you on a micro SD card, or know where you can download one easily too.

I bought a telstra t touch tab from officeworks for $99 and have been running oziexplorer android for approximately a month with no dramas.
It has a 7" screen, plus the added bonus of being a next g phone for calls, texts and internet.
