Hi Matt

Thanks for the effort.  I use the three Tasmanian GPS downloads big time for 
creating bushwalking maps and using my Garmin 62s for urban and country 
mapping.  Being on a 3G network plan data limits are a pretty major thing for 
me so by just getting Tassie I can zero in on my area of interest.

Thanks Brett
