Hello Guys, I got my unit today. Thank you for such brilliant
service!!!
Kind regards, C W, Sales Director, ........................ Pty
Ltd.
<<<<<<<<<< >>>>>>>>>>
Email dated 2 October 2006 ...........Hi Kimball,
Thankyou for the quote. I'm submitting a Purchase Request with
our Accounts/Purchasing Department, and they will be in touch shortly.
My name is ........, and I am the Exploration Manager (an Australian)
for ...............,
just east of Turkey. I have recently joined the company, and we
are in the
process of acquiring geological tools and equipment to support
a 200,000m combined RC and Diamond drilling program here with an
Australian Drilling Company.
Our work area is at approx. 2500m ASL, with topographic elevations
varying over 500m. I have used your company before, and the service
has been excellent. Please keep up the great work.
<<<<<<<<<< >>>>>>>>>>
From David, 9 November 2004 discussing different in-car navigators
which he has used:
"The ..xx.. has no via points option
which really disappointed me. Via points are very useful and
I sorely missed the function on
the ..xx.....
The Garmin StreetPilot 2610 has an added feature
where you can select a bunch of destinations, and it will
calculate
the most efficient route to vist all those destinations. This is
a fantastic function for a salesman who has to vist a number of
different clients during the day. The SP2610 also has an infrared
remote control which allows the user to enter information and control
nearly all the functions of the SP2610 from the back seat of the
car if you wish. A nice touch, but the ease of use of the touch
screen, may for
some users make the remote control redundant.
I know about these differences, because I had a Garmin StreetPilot
3, which was stolen. So I then bought an ..xx.. as a replacement,
for reasons I outline fully
in my comparison.
Six weeks later I sold the ..xx.., and absorbed
a $400.00 loss to replace it with the Garmin StreetPilot 2610.
Now I am happy again!
Now Garmin, if you could add the "3D" screen effect,..........
wow!"

Hi. Thanks for the feedback. The support from yourself (Travroute)
and your reseller is excellent. The Team at Johnny Appleseed
in Brisbane have already
replaced the unit and it is Bluetoothing and GPSsing stronger than before.
With the replaced unit I can now get up to 7 Satellites INSIDE my house.
My next project is to fit the house with wheels.
Thanks

Ordered my GPS over the phone 4.00pm Monday. Turned up at my door 10.30am Tuesday.
I can't get that sort of service in my own town. Well done and thanks....
Phone call from Alan April 2003.
"I found the Haicom (CF and PCMCIA GPS
for use in laptop) far easier to set up than you had indicated.
It works very well with Oziexplorer in my laptop. I've been
out with it in the 4WD a few times now, and I am really pleased
at how well it works in bush areas. Other club members are
using handheld GPS, and my system performance lacks nothing
compared to their's. I have the advantage of real mapping as
well."

Greetings
Bought a basic Etrex from you last week and can't believe what a great little
machine it is. Really appreciated dealing with people who know their product
and their subject. Consider myself somewhat handicapped in the technology
field ,yet I constantly talk to sales people who obviously know far less
about their product than I do!
As I say, really appreciated your advice, expertise and quality service.
Reckon I have most of the basic functions of the Etrex under some sort of
control, when I have a better idea of some of the more advanced features
I will give you a call about the software you sell. Have been playing with
the demo versions off the web and they look very useful and a lot of fun.
Regards and thanks again
Tim.......

Kimball,
thank you very much. Received package today. Still had old driver on system.
Tried new cd 'jag' and my system reported several new files on your cd. Installed
and all worked great first time! Will return cd asap.
I cannot thank you enough for your assistance from my initial enquiry until
well after you had my money (a time when most shops tend to treat people with
less than adequate service). I am becoming more and more fussy about where
I shop and can assure you that I will spread your good deeds at every opportunity
(not to mention your unbeatable prices). I will be shopping with you more in
the future as yours is the best service I have received from any shop in years.
Thank you and all the best
Ken........

Hi Guys
Thank you for your recent assistance re digital mapping software for our
4WD tour for the ........ in NSW. The products you recommended are excellent
and do the job exactly to our requirements. Having little experience or knowledge
of the availability and useage of digital mapping made it difficult for me
to explain my needs. Your patience and assistance is most appreciated. Thank
you

Intrepid
Cyclist tests Garmin eTrex and Kodak DC5000
Congratulations Michael, on the
completion of a personal odyssey!
Michael Jackson completed the heritage trail stretching from Melbourne
to south Queensland- by bicycle. The Garmin
eTrex GPS, and a small personal Emergency Position Indicating
Radio Beacon (EPIRB) were part of his equipment list. A Kodak
DC5000 digital camera provided daily pictures of his progress
over the period March-June 2001. A distance of over 2000 kilometres,
much of it through tortuous rain-forest tracks, tested the ruggedness
of the Garmin and the Kodak, as well as Michael's preparedness. Visit
Michael's website for records and pictures of his bike trek.
Quoting Michael about 1000km in to the
trip, near Canberra.- "About a third of the trip
done... and time for a bike shop for repairs! To date I have been
using the e-Trex GPS daily. More often than not in marking in my
night campsite for reference over the next few days, checking elevation
and keeping an eye on bearings.
About four times I have really had to rely on it. These situations occurred
where my topo was too large a scale, the elevation was the only key to choosing
a track, to confirm an unmarked and very important turn and when bush bashing
across a bike-wrecking swamp. An unreal little piece of gadgetry in these
situations, and was very happy with myself for purchasing it. It saved my
ass totally.
As for the EPIRB - I pat it several times daily.
If you've been checking the site you'll probably see that I've been reducing
and trimming the photos from the Kodak DC5000 that I've been uploading. This
is to save web space more than anything. I'd like to have one on the site
which was unaltered (so you can see the quality) but they're almost 1.3MB
and I'm fairly pushed for space. Please be aware of this, so the camera doesn't
get a poor reference! It's just a total winner. It's taken a bashing and
a dose of dust (or ten) and some ash treatment too."
My experience with photos for the web are the same. Once you
start cutting down the size and the resolution, so they will load
quickly on a site (which is important), the apparent quality suffers
visibly.
Congratulations Michael, on the
completion of a personal odyssey!
