Durability - both about the same
Accuracy _ navi wins hands down
good for dummies - navi can be a bit more complicated setting up but once done its fine
long-term usage - both need to be used in a aqua-pac

The navi also has an sd card which allows you to save multiple days sailing.
Most people are leaning towards the navi and its also slightly cheaper. it has my vote.

Send Laurie a message and let him know, with his wizardry he should be able to track the villain if someone is playing silly buggers

I think this has happened before, when somebody didn't log out of a session.

Does anybody else know you're password????.
It's definitely on your account because the "posts" number is the same.

Sometimes I've used public assess computers and several times when I went to log in there was still a log in from some previous user who didn't log out. Maybe one of your friends with access to your computer is playing games.

i have pm jp747 over the misunderstanding.

hope that ASIO will not be monitoring me...


anyway, what is the price of a GT-11 in OZ ?
does it work better on the PC than Foretrex201 ?

Boards Crazy over East if you can wait long enough (Simon) backs the product if there is a problem.
Local shops have them, but a few have complained about issues with product that did go on a while.
