Jason what sort of aussie coverage do the maps provide in Navman ST on your unit,or do youpay for updates and extentions for other states,areas of Australia?

hi ricklove<br /><br />you get all of Australia all the roads etc<br />and land marks eg shops, hospitals banking, clubs etc <br /><br />we used it when we went on holiday just driving along felt hungry asked the gps were the next food place was easy to use <br /><br />the only problem is that the GPS software is tied to the unit so you cant give a copy to your mate etc but there would most be a way around it just not got in to it yet <br /><br />they send you updates for free so far so good <br /><br /><br />end of line
