satnav maps
Hi,
Heading to oz on our recce soon, thought about getting a map pack for or Garmin Nuvi 310 but I think £125 is a bit steep!
Does anybody know where i might be able to down load the maps 'cheaper' anywhere else.
Cheers

I recently bought a 5" screen Garmin 1490T with a free bonus of lifetime AU and NZ map updates for $229. You can get decent units for a lot less than this. Buy one here.

Re: satnav maps
You could pick up a cheap TomTom from eBay, the Australia map is only 134MB and will fit on any TomTom.

NavFree is a free iPhone sat nav available on iTunes so no need to jailbreak. Used it today around Perth and it got me to where i was going with no problems
