I have one of the new Garmin Rino 120's. It is a combination GPS and FRS radio, and will show you other Rino user's locations within a 2 mile radius, so you can find your friends or family and set bearings to them. I have yet to purchase all of the available software, but it has 8 megs of RAM in which to hold it all, and tells you information on what types of buisnesses (service stations, restaurants) you will find at each exit. I believe the mapping software includes Canada. It sells for $240 US.Go to http://www.Garmin.com to check it out. There is a less expensive version at $170, but it doesn't have the RAM to hold all of the available mapping software. deb '85 Westy "Gypsy" |
