Is there a satnav I can use in the UK and also in the US and Australia?

Question

I live in the UK but want to be able to use my Satnav in Australia and the US. Really not sure what Satnav would suit me best

Answer 1

Yes a Garmi4 just get the countries softwhere or Google earth upgrated

Answer 2

You'd need to get the detailed mapping for the US and Australia. All good gps have a base map of some sort that only shows the rough details of the country. In Australia you'd have a couple of free options if you have a  Garmin, one is 'Shonky maps' and the other 'Tracks 4 Australia' which you should find with a Google. I'm unaware of any freebies for Magellan. The commercial offerings for both are around the 175-200 GBP price.

Beware that with some gps, particularly the cheaper street guide based ones, you may not be able to load the required maps.

US mapping is much cheaper I believe.
