Hi guys, I'm with Mary-Anne and we are trying to use google maps. Ive used it before but only with written directions. Would it be in settings to be able to turn on the spoken directions? Any help appreciated. Thanks Fern xo

Thanks very much for your help. We have it working a little bit better now. Do you know, should it be set on Traffic or Satelite? We've found the sound button, but not the start route, and from the looks of it I won't get the sound without the start button

Thank you Miss Monique for your assistance. I had quite a few controversies trying to get my GPS fully functioning. I was phoning vodaphone, going to the phone shops, but in the end, one of Mary-Annes friends re-adjusted my settings and has got me and my GPS up and running. Now all I need is a job to trail it out with

Hi Miss Lana, all the girls to the rescue to help a damsel in distress with her GPS. I've finally got my Navigation working now and did a test run to Office Works to buy a matching car charger. I've only ever used a Navman once in Sydney City, thinking it would be very handy for city driving, but it too got confused with all the one way and no right turn roads piled up on each other. Darwin is much more cruizy to drive in then the Sunshine Coast. Its easy driving in Darwin. Well have a good night, or morning and talk to you again soon
