Big Screen GPS
Hi Folks,
I am looking for a large screen GPS (4x4 use) as I am really tired of peering at a Garmin 60cs. Now I am a bit of a GPS nut, having used various GIS and GPS combinations for mapping in my job for many years. If I wanted to do realtime navigation I have a toughbook that I can link to the 60 and plot position using either mapsource/fugawi/or the DNRGarmin software to run realtime tracking on Arcview GIS software. But I am not going to drive around with a laptop up and running. So what I am looking for is a large screen GPS with a basic map (I am quite familiar with Garmin's world map) and trip computer type functions. I was thinking about Tomtom largely 'cause it could control an ipod. But does a tomtom even have a basic world map (I live in Ghana) and does it have the trip computer type functions of a garmin. I know that a garmin 276 would probably be the logical choice, but I really fancy controlling music from the touchscreen of the TT!!
Ta in advance,
Gil
