Yeah I used android navigation before the tomtom, very good so long as you stick to the route...if you deviate and there isn't a data connection available you're stuffed though. Android navigation was poor at taking waypointed routes though, you have to navigate piece by piece (to the next blue marker) if I remember rightly

Fitting the charger should be a doddle...I had it taped to the inside of my fairing so I am unsure where it could go on your DRZ....where there's a will there's a way, worst case the socket and charger unit could maybe stay under the seat?

I'll PM you the addy and my mobile, give me an idea of when I'll see what I can do.....I could always bring it to you, any excuse for a ride

edit: Paddy, It'll be good to have a foreigner or two in the mix
