help please


I think that this has been covered before. If it has  I can't find it. I have heard/read that I can download the camps aust into my garmin nuvi 265w.If this is possible can someone please advise me how to go about it? We are almost sorted and should start our lap in July.
Thanks Jack Cherie and the four legged kids.

there is a download which can be purchased from the camps website which places all of the camps 5 known locations onto certain gps devices, I would suggest you go to the camps Australia wide website and take a look at the gps poi file (it is available to purchase at $19.95)

check to see if you gps comes under the ones that can accept the download and if it can then firstly download a "poi down loader" it should be available as free download from your gps website, this will make it a lot easier

just make sure your gps is compatible with the download and choose the correct poi downloader for your model gps

if you have any strife at all when installing the POI file, dont be afraid of getting on the phone and speaking to either of the lads, they are great blokes with a lot of patience, they needed every bloody bit with me
