[talk-ph] Hi Guys and Gals, Open Street Map.

Hi Michael,

I was asking about GPS equipment in this forum a couple of weeks ago and I got the following info:
"Try Infomax at Park Square, Greenhills, Megamall, Trinoma. They have some Garmin products and a few BT GPS Rxs. The price is very high thougher

Apart from that, if you have friends in HK coming for a visit in the near future, you might get them to bring something over for you. I got my external GPS for about 270 HKD from

There should be a few retail outlets in Mongkok Computer Mall as well.
