chasvanblom asked:
Which technology has more “user-friendly features” for Geocaching? I’m shopping for either a GPS or an ipod or an ipad.
And is WiFi-accessibility required for either one?

Any suggestions for a GPS for walking in cities and towns?
Barbara asked:
Hi,
Does anybody have suggestions for a handheld GPS for walking in cities and towns?
We already have a garmin that we use in the car but I was hoping to purchase something smaller (and something that won’t lead us to highways)!
I’ve looked at the Bushnell backtrack but it has more negative reviews than positive ones.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thank you.

What is wrong with my Tom Tom One xls GPS unit?
Rambo asked:
My GPS unit use to work great, but now if I disconnect the pwer cord, it will just stop working an turn off, almost as if the battery cannot sustain the charge. Also, no matter how long I re-charge it, if I unpluug it it stops working. Please help?
I wanted to add that “over charging” is not the issue, sometimes I do not use it for weeks and it works fine plugged, does not work unplugged, can I buy a battery?

Which Garmin GPS system is the best for me to buy?
Rachel asked:
I really need to get a GPS because I’m always getting turned around on major highways and I travel all over with my friends in the state on mini road trips. I don’t want to get a $1,000 one but I’ve heard from people in the past that Garmin is a great seller? Any personal preferences on GPSs?

HLV asked:
I am looking into buying my first GPS and some say they have spoken street names while others say text to speech and mention nothing of the device speaking street names. What exactly is the difference between the two ?

Anyone know where I can find a driver for a generic usb gps dongle?
starwaltl asked:
I bought a usb gps at a flea market, and no driver was included with it. I’ve tried it on Windows XP, Vista, and 7 with no luck at finding a pre-configured driver for it.
Thats the problem.. I dont know who the manufacturer is, and the part number and serial number are worn off.

Lysa87 asked:
I have a 93 Saturn with a broken cigarette lighter and no power outlet. I want to buy a portable GPS for my car because I have troubles getting lost a lot. Can I still buy one or does it have to be plugged in at all times to be used?

Gosh didnt realize there where so many options and of course all the information is so close to each other.
