    Question Where to buy a GPS in Hong Kong

    HI

    I want to buy my Dad a GPS for his 70th birthday next month. He lives in Cape Town, South Africa - so I want one that will work in SA and everywhere else in the world for when he travels.
    Can anyone recommend where is the cheapest, best place to buy one is and what I can expect to pay?
    Can anyone recommend a particular brand/make which is good?

    We have always had Garmin handhelds on the boats, I think they're a bit more expensive but well worth the extra.

    Lammarite,
    Can you get English maps of HK for Garmin anywhere in HK - if so, where?
    Thanks

    Yes, but I'm not sure where from, sorry.

    Can you tell me how much the Garmin cost around about? Do you think a good place to buy one would be in the Sports Street "Fa Yuen Street" in Mong Kok?

    Question "Fa Yuen Street" ???? Why there?

    That *does* seem to be a strange place to start your quest. You expect to wear out your shoes in your search? <Grin>.

    Actually, I've never seen any GPS in any of the Wanchai Computer Malls, or at Shamshuipo - but I might have overlooked them.

    If you will settle for a simple "Fortuna" GPS (no maps) with Bluetooth that came from UK, I might be persuaded to sell mine since I've not had much chance to use it.

    I'm also planning to buy a Garmin, just renewing this post in case someone knows a place where they can recommend. Else I'll go SSP to hunt for it
