Evening gents.
I'm going on rolling week long trip in the high country a week after Easter (well with the state of things at the moment I hope so). I've never had proper electronic maps have always used paper ones or Google maps. I've been given a full list of trek notes with GPS coordinates and UTM. These are on a word document some 30 odd papers. I've got no idea where to start. App on the phone, tablet or a navigation device.

Long shot...

Anyone willing to lend out their device with a crash course on how upload..

Thanks guys.

For the past 2 years I've use an Android Samsung tab Lite, only upgrading to a Newer Model in the past 6 months.

I got into using CE operating tablets about 15 years ago when I started using OziExplorer, the first tablet I brought already had iGO street maps for Street Navigation on the tablet, and basically I like the iGO system, I started playing around with OziExplorer for the more detailed geographical maps, far better then google maps etc.

The OziExplorer maps are great, very good representation of the Vic High Country, East Gippsland, Simpson Desert etc etc etc . . . worth a look at.

I will admit, having a new tablet and just downloading new version of OziExplorer, I am having a couple teething issues that I haven't had much time to work through as yet.

I'm leaning towards the tablet. What specs would be required at a minimum?
