    ive had the N95 for 2 months, the best maps to load into for NZ is navman, they are very detailed, i used the nav to take me to work just after i got it, its great, i purposely missed a turn and it told me i had missed it and to take the next turn, it then replotted the directions. the voice is very clear and easy to understand and provides plenty of warning before making the next turn. very cool toy!

    ok..that's what i wanted to know. so it's a real inbuilt GPS...just needs independent maps, but uses inbuilt software or runs software of map provider?

    No parties this weekend mate. Just got back from Townsville actually. Went there for busniess and to watch Broncos/Cowboys footy game with Nicole. 1st time we have been to an NRL game and we loved every minute of it. :):)
    I love the Broncos and Nicole loves the Cowboys. Was a good game. ALOT different to watching it on the tv. Here are some (crap) random pics. :)
    P.S-I need to get a better camera. :D:D

    navman is a company in NZ that has GPS systems for cars etc, not sure if you can down load the files from the net (i used the software that came with the gps units we use at work), but google "navmann" and you should find there site, I'm sure there are many companies in Aussie that sell software for GPS units, cant be too expensive to get some software.

    last time i did a ewe turn it kicked me in the shins! lol

    p.s. i have saved Ferrari in my GPS as a land mark, i called it "the holy grail"......now my phone tells me im at "the holy grail" when i arrive at F-NZ

    If you would hold the camera steady it would be more clear. Try taken the pictures before you start downing alcohol for a steadier hand........:D
