It’s all so confusing. I just need a map (like melways or more detailed if possible) that has GPS support that will show where the hell I am and can give me directions when I want to go from A to B.

I've managed to get myself a USB gps reciever off ebay recently. I'm in the same boat as Nokia6600 - I'm looking for maps of vic, but they're not cheap. Cheapest i've seen the melways map set is about $160 - from maptrax.com.au

Too bad that I can't find Navigator Turn By Turn or Navigator AuswayLite so I can test it before I pay heaps of money for it.

i've found some auslig topo maps, but i haven't got many sources so its slow++
I can't find anything else - i was at uni today so i couldn't do much searching. Any help would be great
With USB GPS devices, they tend to emulate a serial port - in my case it created com port 7 - you just configure Ozi to use the emulated com port and its all good.
