Robocision Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 Hey all. I'm headed to Ireland next month. I want to buy a GPS in the US before I go that will let me geocache in Ireland. Any ideas which to buy? I'm looking to spend < $100.00 Quote
Penguin_ar Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 Do you already have a GPS? If so, it would probably be cheaper just to buy additional software to get the European maps. If not, most of my Irish friends have garmin nuvis (good for car as well as geocaching), but I am not sure they make a model under 100 dollars. Quote

I have a Garmin with just street navigation and I now I use my cellular phone with Geocaching Navigator from Trimble. That wont' work in Ireland though. Quote

You know, turn by turn navigation only. Not much detail off of roads and no coordinates at all. It's about 3 years old. Quote
+Rockin Roddy Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 But which one. Is it a nuvi? Yes, the model would be helpful in answering your question!!! Quote
