:D I AM NEW TO THIS GPS FIELD :D

AM TAKING A TRIP TO MAZATLAN, MEXICO AND I WAS WONDERING WHAT PDA HANDHELD GPS DEVICE IS GOOD ( that shows the streets and is detailed) AND IS CHEAP, AROUND OR UNDER $350.

THNK FOR THE RESPONSE Question

Before worrying about the physical device I would first try and find out if there is any software that has detailed street-level maps of Mexico. Also, will you be travelling on foot or by car (as GPS software tends to be aimed at one or the other but seldom both).

As for hardware perhaps consider the Mitac Mio 168 or one if it's clones (often found under the Medion brand).

Hi chosen,

Welcome

to the forum.

I hope you enjoy your trip to Mazatlan.

Please could you turn your CAPS lock off next time you post as it is generally considered shouting when someone posts in capital letters and it makes the post quite difficult to read. Thumbs Up

Thanks.

Regards,

Bo Peep.
