Hi Boxhd
I have recently updated from the original HN5 to the new HN6 and there is a lot of difference.
With the new HN6, there is only 2 forms of Navigation, the street iGo Navigation and then there is OziExplorer - the only reason why I have the units.
Compared to the original HN5, it is fare easier now to import data from a PC. In the old system, you would add the imported data, eg waypoints or track files into a folder and them add them to the correct files on the micro SD card and then open the HN5 and use the data that way.
Now with the new format, it is just like using a full version of Ozi, send and receive data directly from the new HN6 when connected to the laptop as you would do with a normal GPS when connected to OziExplorer.
I am yet to give it a full workout - that will happen in a weeks time, but so far the bigger size is the way to go.
Cheers
Stephen
