Portal People,
I'm looking to ad to my already rather large growing collection of GPS's with a new unit that will do a few things needed that my other unit's will not do.
First, a quick back ground, I'm a traveling sales rep, that covers two states and needs to stop at different dealers/clients within those two states to do sales calls. I need to find a GPS that can save me from wasting gas/time by never back tracking, finding the quickest possible way to visit all my stops (which can be up to 60-70 stop in one trip) along with being able to plot these routes through something as easy as let's say like, Google Earth. I would really like to be able to use something like Google Earth instead of someone's mapping software, the easier the better. This would also be helpful because when we find new clients/dealers, they can be easily found (website, etc.) & then be added to the route. My wife runs the office along with setting up my appointments/route, so if it was something she already was familiar with would be great. Besides allot of the other software's out there don't seem to work for us, we are MAC users.
Second, I'm in the middle of building a family expo vehicle & would like it to be useful (if possible) for that as well, meaning, topo, bluetooth, Good/up to date P.O.I., etc.
Third, if it was useful on my KTM 950 Adventure by being waterproof would be nice but not required.
I think that covers most of what I'm looking for in a unit, so if anyone has any advice on to which model (s) I should be concentrating on, please by all means...
I would be much appreciative.
Cheers
