    Just had better look and I think they are 250,000 as you can't zoom very far. Overlay is cool.

    Anyone no how to get satellite images on a standard gps like rhino?

    You'd need to add them as a layer similar to the Garmin Custom Maps overlay Topo50 maps that you can download off topomap.co.nz. Standby and I'll whip a test Sat overlay for Garmins and post link to it.

    Yeah mate has it for his Oregon 450. From memory its $50NZ per year for PC. You then load selected areas onto your device and once done its there for ever. So a device with good internal mem is going to be able to take more.

    What's the detail like and how old are the pics? Can you zoom right in on it?

    Not sure of the exact zoom levels VC but when we were out in the central north we were using it to hop from clearing to clearing. The detail is similar to google earth (shit in my opinion)
    What we did find is that the iPhone maps (not google) have more detail (could pick a grassy clearing from a swamp).
    I cannot justify the money just to have a sat picture of an area that I could just as easily print of google.......
