<br>Presumably your Dad isn&#39;t very good with mobile phone
apps, etc.&nbsp; <br>So what you mean is, he would phone you up
and you would look at an app on your phone and tell him where his car
is?<br><br>I&#39;m also looking for a GPS device though for
a different reason.<br>I go metal detecting and have thought a GPS
device would be great for logging the exact location of my
finds.<br>I have a tracking app on my mobile but in the middle of a
muddy field isn&#39;t great to get the phone out and go through umpteen
menus on a touch screen trying to record the location of each of my
finds.&nbsp; Phone gets rather muddy for a start!<br>So
I&#39;m looking for a GPS device that has a load of buttons (no faffing
through menus in the field).&nbsp; Where I can press the approp button
to record the location for each type of find.&nbsp; EG button A for
medieval silver coins, button B for say Roman coins, button C for modern
coins, etc, etc.<
;br>The idea being the GPS device can be in a transp
arent bag to keep it clean and press the buttons through the bag.&nbsp;
And then I can download the GPS data on my laptop or phone,
etc.<br><br>Anyone know of such a
device?<br>Regards<br>Andy<br
