Re: Half-dozen-questions on 590LM features
Thanks PanEuropean for your detailed reply.
Re using an Android tablet for route planning was because, having tried to route plan on a TomTom, I almost topped myself with frustration! Thought it might be the same for the Garmin 590LM. Garmin's response to using BaseCamp on an Android was evasive so I'm guessing you can't. I've asked them to clarify.
Looks like the 590LM with a Senna SMH5 or SMH10R Bluetooth headset might do the job those £45 Chinese/IGo Primo have been doing. Their biggest failings were unreliable hardware (I always carried a spare) and no weather proofing. IGo Primo is very definitely superior to Garmin; Garmin better hope they don't produce a biker's version on a weatherproof tablet!
