We have a question for you, if you don't mind me asking. I am totally new to GPS systems.
We would like to purchase a GPS unit to include software in order to assist us in finding a certain coordinates for a piece of land that my family has to save us in paying a surveyor to locate the exact locate of this land. We use to know but the landmark is now gone. We do have a map that has the long/lat on it so now we need the GPS unit and software to go and locate this piece of land.
We have also heard the Pharos GPS with Ostia software has its pros and cons just like everything else but it when searching for something the numbers get closer, closer, and then far away. We heard Pharos was the first PDA GPS. Pharos is named after the infamous ancient lighthouse in Egypt and inspired by the tradition of navigation technology, Pharos Science and Applications, Inc. has been developing location-based technology since 1998 for info you can check out this web site.

We are thinking about the DELL GPS Navigation System but we heard that we are unable to enter coordinates into the system. This is what we need to do the most since we have the long/lat numbers also we need to be able to use the mapping portion of the software and be able to program the buttons as well enter this information into favorites, if need to be for future references.
We have also heard and read that VitoNavigator 2 will not let you switch to another program and wants to remain on top. This is differently out of the question for us to use.
Would you know any good GPS unit and software that we can us our Dell Axim 5 or suggest something that will work for us?
We would greatly appreciate your help and expertise and thank you for your time.
