Thanks John.

I may be back with more questions.

Ah yes, how do you find the GPS and just how much can you do with it? (Compare it with Sendero or Wayfinder briefly and I'll probably understand.)

Thanks.

Have you tried the "What's On" prog and/or the local
weather and services?

I'm interested as a sighted friend uses these and I
quite like the idea of them.
