If anybody needs a new GPS Magellan Triton 300 (handheld) let me know, selling mine for 190 USD.

I bought a www.findercolombia.com last year for 999,000 which I found to be the best option for Colombia (the current price is 699,000) - and I am impressed at the frequency of software updates. I get updates every couple of weeks which contain current updates for one-way streets, restaurants and bars. last month they came out with a bunch of updates for many of the small towns including detailed maps of Monteria (where I spend a lot of time). I went to Barranquilla and we picked many restaurants and hotels based on the GPS.

We find it is much cheaper to stop, roll down the window and say, "Ayúdeme por favor." Usually works for us.

Yes if you´re in "rolling down a window" mode...but if you´re up in the Fallarones on the verge of getting lost a GPS with accurate maps would be nice to have. Twenty five years ago you probobly said I don´t need no stinkin´computer, I´ll just head off to the library and read the World Book Encyclopedia.

Ok - I am a novice or ignorant as far as GPS is concerned. If I buy a GPS unit here (I have ordered a Megallen 4250 today) can I then use it in Colombia by buying a map from one of these vendors? Or do I buy a CD or something from these people and load it on the unit? How is it done? Thanks for explaining and yes I owe you a couple Aguilla or Aguardiantes (or both).
