Thread: GPS software for australia

I've only got Q2 2005...would be nice to see some newer ones tho

there are 2006 maps in the new version of destinator pn. I think they are Q3. This has been the only map update since the 2005 Q2 maps. These maps are not on the net.

hi just reading through the formus i have the same issue eveyone else does,

i have a laptop that i want gps on cos i dun wanna buy a portable device.
I tried following steps in forums from this site but im not very computer litterate. I have a gps receiver (bluetooth sirf) and since my laptop old, now have a bluetooth dongle.

I dl mapmonkey but i cant find maps for australia, so i tried dl the emulator cos i have tomtom that i used to run on my dell axim x50. but it crashed all the time so i tried installing it on my laptop using the emulator...... no sucess!!! so now i want to get gps working on the laptop but i dont understand what register this copy dll files type this in command line etc etc.

sorry i just not up with pc like u guys is there a site or thread that could teach a person like me to install and get running gps on my LAPTOP????
i believe i have all necessary equipment, just need to piece it all together.

any help would be great thanks guys

I have just switched from Mapmonkey with Destinator 3 to Destinator 6. It runs without any addtional apps like Mapmonkey.

Miles better than 3.

Cheers

What frontend are you running? and does dest6 embed into it? Do you have Aus maps? Where did you get Dest6 for Pc (thats not the palm version)?

Cheers

PM me if necessary

My understanding is the Destinator is free, what you have to pay for is the Maps.

Destinator is not free. Links have been removed.

how do you run destinator 6 with RR?

tom tom maps are much better for australia. Is there anyway to get the software from an acutal tom tom decive (not pda but actual personal navigator) to work on the pc with RR?

Yes, very important question. How does Dest 6 integrate with RR?
Anybody?
