Gps
 
I want to purchase a GPS system that will be useful for trekking, walking and the car and has good NZ maps software at street level+. Does anyone have a view Garmin tends to be the product that most UK websites recommend, but I see that Navman is a good NZ company which I would have thought would have a better product. Need a waterproof and fiarly light product which has good battery life and the ability to take additional memory.Any thoughts on this.

Preferably I would like to buy in the UK but could be pursuaded to purchase in NZ.

Any ideas of costs would be good. :beer:
