Best PDA/GPS advice please

I'm moving to New Zealand at the end of the year, and would like to be able to 'use' it there also.
I would also like to add WiFi (card?) at some point. I would prefer a 'combo' unit, as it will also be used for walking/hiking to some extent.

Was looking at either the Mio 168 or Acer N35. am i in the right field?

Regards

Kevin

Pretty close. Your problem will be the WiFi - that's not easily possible with those PDAs.

street routing software will have to be Navman, topographic software probably OziExplorerCE

Whats so great about WiFi?

I have a 4700 and TT Nav (BT) I just bought but reckon that the TT Go would be better as I cant get the BT unit to work and fancy a single unit.

WiFi has lots of uses if you're going to make use of the Pocket PC. It's by far the fastest way to synchronise, also it is longer range than Bluetooth. I can walk around the house with my hx4700, browse the web, play music files from my PC, send and receive email and listen to Internet radio stations.
