HEMA 6 Price

Care to elaborate Stephen?

I've been using a Garmin Nuvi with Garmin Topo Aus v. 2 and the map is a real disappointment. V3 may be better but otherwise the Garmin reliance on vector maps limits the choices as far as I can see.

Cheers from Birdsville, aptly named at the moment.

Hi Sigmund

Firstly I have used the Garmin Topo Maps also in my Nuvi and in no way can you compare them with using OziExplorer on the Hema Navigators, it is just like chalk and cheese map quality and features.

Using the new HN6 is just like using you laptop computer in the car, but with the advantage on the moving map right in front of your face.

With the new HN6, you can record you track file, as you have been able to in the past, but import the track files directly onto you computer without using the SD card as was the norm with the older Navigators.


I could rave on all day, but if you are after a very simple to use, but very high quality product to use, the new HN6 is by far the best way to go.



Enjoy Birdsville, it is a top little spot and we never tire of visiting the town.





Cheers

Thanks Stephen.

Will take a close look when back home. The missus heard me grumbling about the Garmin map and dropped hints about what Santa might do this Xmas with the aid of an elf.

Yep, we're really enjoying Birdsville. We have a CP site overlooking the billabong and the birdlife is amazing.

Also impressed with the effort the Diamantina shire has gone to with traveller info. and facilities.

Down the Track tomorrow. Have read your account of it and found it very helpful.
