  1. Ok, since I have limited it to the 60csx and the 530hcx and since I am currently over seas this presents a question. Since it will have the Americas maps does it still have a world base map? How do I get/install maps of germany or do I have to buy all of europe? Do they offer TOPO maps of Germany? If I were to choose to have turn by turn directions enabled what software would I also need to install? Now with all those can they all be loaded to work all at once? If so, does it slow the unit down?

     

    Thanks

  2. I currently own a pretty abused Rino 110 that I bought prior to Deploying to Iraq 4 or 5 years ago and its time to replace it. I am considering the Garmin Rino 530HCX, the Garmin GPSMap 60CSX the Magellan Explorist 600 or the Magellan Triton 500.

     

    I am a currently stationed in Germany so I am very interested in a Handhold GPS that has European maps available that won't also break my bank since I am buying the GPS too. I like the idea of topographic maps and the ability to use Google Maps some how (just seems cool to keep track of running, hiking, our 4x4ing adventures that way. I am also hoping in using it for turn by turn in my Jeep.

     

    Any and all recommendations as well as experiences with these 4 models would be greatly appreciated.
