I am looking to buy a present for my husband of a handheld gps but know nothing about them and a friend suggested someone on this website may be able to help. I have been looking at the etrex venture on the web but they seem to be about £60+ cheaper if I source from the States even allowing for postage. They come with a US database map but also additional Uk detailed map which can be added on - will this be a disadavantage when using it here, is it better to pay the extra and get the Uk/europe version? Any helpful suggestions welcome!
