Karen Hi,

Can't give You specific on the HN7 but I have the HN5I, Find the offroad (4WD) mapping excellent the street mapping IGO I find very good and prefer it over my invehicle mapping.

If You are going to remote and a lot of outback travel the cost should be justified. They take a bit of getting used to though.

Mike.

Hi Karen, we have an HN6i, the immediate predecessor to the 7i. 

Initially it was fantastic, but at about a year old I am starting to get frustrated with how slowly it acquires satelites, and how the iGo (road navigator) wanders off on adjacent roads. The accuracy of the Ozi explorer (off road ) part of the system appears to be much better.

In the last month i have been considering getting a replacement unit to use in the city.

I have spoken to Hema, who i found were dismisive of the problems I was experiencing.

Plendo Hi,

Some time ago was having trouble with my unit being slow, Topo map tracks are saved & need clearing from time to time so as  to free up memory space.

Took the unit into Hema, replaced battery, serviced unit including firmware update, added camps 7 for $50.00 have found them excellent to deal with.

Mike.
