Hi guys,

I could've sworn I registered in this forum a year or two ago but I just couldn't figure out my login, or the email address I used... so I registered again. If I ever do figure it out, I'll inform the Admins to delete the old one. :D

Been using GPS since the Garmin GPS12. :D Then moved on to PDA's like the Dopod 810, and HTC Touch Pro, both on MobileXT. Just bought a Nuvi 255W cuz my iPhone doesn't do voice unless I get an app... so I thought a dedicated GPS unit would be better!

I'm hopeless with directions, and get lost all the time. Heck without a GPS I prolly wouldn't be able to find my computer to type this post! #-o

Happy New Year everyone!

Regards,

Steve.
