I'm wanting to buy a Garmin GPSMAP 62s. I've done my research and feel this unit will suit my needs. Before I venture to the shop to purchase, I'd like to actually hold one in my hand and have a fiddle with it and talk to the owner about their experiences with the unit. I'm also hoping there will be some caches loaded into the unit so I can see what the various screens look like.
So, anyone in Sydney that has one of these units and would demonstrate it to me, as well as let me have a fiddle, I would like to hear from you. I live in the Castle Hill area but will travel anywhere in Sydney for this purpose.
Many thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Calypso62

Re: I'd love to hold one
Not quite Sydney but you're welcome to take the short drive to Echuca in Northern Vic. It's only about 8 hours and you'll get to see a whole heap of bitumen, white lines and wooden posts along the way.
The bonus is that I'll make you a cuppa while you "have a fiddle"\:D/

Hi WandW,
Funny you should say that..... We're thinking of passing through Echuca in January. We would like to go for a ride on a paddle steamer and thought we'd pass that way on our travels to Melbourne for the Australian Open tennis. But I am hoping to have a 62s up and running by then. Hmmmm...might take you up on the cuppa though!! Thanks for the offer.
