iQue M5 - no longer available

Includes mapping preloaded on SD card, auto mount, 12v charger/speaker, 240v charger, USB PC cradle, City Navigator Australia on CD and mapping preloaded on the included SD Card.

Why do we include the SD card? GPSOZ has a policy that all GPS units that we sell should be useable from the time you open the box, ie no mucking around with software installs, no downloads from computers or the internet. In our opinion, the internal memory on the iQue is not adequate for normal use and the first thing you'll want to do is buy an SD card. To save you the hassle we have included it in the package from day 1.
