Hi,

The only thing I would say is that it is really painfully slow to download
podcasts.  Other than that, as Jackie says, I agree it's a good machine.

The maps aren't bad, they are Nokia Here Maps, but they are not as detailed
as Google Maps.

All the best

Steve

Hi Andy

Here you go,

tml

My husband Martin and I both have these, and while we don't use the GPS side
of them given we are rarely out, we love the MP3/DAISY side of the player,
and also download podcasts we want to listen to.  In fact, it's one of the
best pieces of kit we each own, so I can't recommend it any more than that!

Kind regards,

Jackie Brown

Hi all.

I've been thinking for a while of upgrading my old and reliable hand-held
Humanware GPS system, with external clip-on speaker.

I also believe that my old beloved   Pocket treck is no longer, sadly going
to be with us for much longer.

So I really have 2 items i need.  A good mp3 player and  also, a gps system.

Bingo! I have found it.

The Treck, I think it's called will give me an enhanced mp3 player with
improved speach engin as well as an up to date GPS system, which I really
need now at the end of my journey.

I have looked up Human Ware and all they want to sell me is a magnifyer.

I must say that their webpage is even worse than the BBC's Sounds page and
all I need to know now is some information regarding this new product, yet
cannot find it!    I just keep going around and around in cyrcles.

Oh, interestingly though, I can find out the price well enough!  Surprise
surprise.

Can any kind hearted person give me a better link and can other list members
tell me about their experience so far withis device and would recomend it?

If you prefer to keep this off-list my email address is:

meikle.aiden@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:meikle.aiden@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Very best wishes.
