Geocaching Australia

thanks for the quick reply MM...

should they be loaded directly onto the device or is using a card better?

I've just ordered a Garmin Oregon & the City Navigator NT for Australia (along with some lovely accessories ).

Which other maps should I also get? Are ShonkyMaps the way to go?

This will be a big jump for me as I've been using my Garmin Forerunner 305 for all my caching!

mightybent wins - first Australian to do so since 1997...

41:12...i was "only" just over 30mins slower....

found three caches with this yesterday - now i just need to figure out how much data i used!

thanks delboy1203...

i signed up yesterday for the "starter" pack - $4.95 for 10MB...

had a quick test of it at lunch today and made my way to the start of a letterbox multi without any problems...

i look forward to having more of a play!

hi damo

thanks for that info, that's exactly what i was after...i'm only planning to use the data plan for caching...

I have a 6110 Nav and am interested in trying out this application...what sort of data plans are you guys on? i'm with Optus and can't decide which plan i would need...

congrats to mightybent on winning the SMH HM on sunday!

use this macro in GSAK http://gsak.net/board/index.php?showtopic=5917&st=0&#entry34681 <p>...then copy the file to the phone card memory (under documents)...open then select all and save as landmarks...you can can even create a geocaching category under landmarks... <p>no need to covert from TomTom ...

Is that your only GPS or is it used for running and you occasionally use it to find caches? <p>It's my main GPS (which I also use for running!) - I do have a Nokia 6110 Navigator and use that interstate for finding the best* roads to caches. I have often combined a running session with caching! <p>...

I use the 305 while Fore! & Shadow! use the 201...
