Does the IZZO Golf Swami 3000 cover courses in Australia, and can the unit be charged with USB.

Never used it in Aussieland but since it is sold there I would assume it does cover some courses. Can use USB to charge from your computer, but it takes a long time compared to wall charger. You can get a USB adapter for your car at Amazon - much faster.

Not that I know of. The Golf Guru GPS is useless without it. I think Amazon has some explaining to do and some responsibility.

I believe it will, yes. It works on my Golf. If not, any CVS will sell you a "lighter" adapter which accommodates one or two chargers for most electronic portables. I hope this is helpful. Good luck!

When you are at, or near, the course you wish to play, chose "play golf" using the bottom left button. After it links to GPS satellite, it will list all of the available courses in that area. I live in Montana and so far, it has had every course even small obscure ones that I thought might not be in it. Make sure you use the usb cable and an internet connected computer to update the watch as soon as you get it. It did take about a 3/4 hour to update it initially after I got it, but worked as advertised after I did this. Great tool to help improve and enhance your golf game.

Bought the 500 model and it worked perfect in New Zealand,also i purchased a power strip with usb charging port on it. My girlfriend used her curling iron and blow drier with no issues.

the wall-plug-in-charger came in the box with the golf buddy voice + gps. at the end of the round there seems to be enough charge for about another 14 holes, or so. hope this helps. jc

Reply: I did not receive a charger with my Izzo and I believe they are sold separately. I believe you can recharge using a USB cord from your computer, but I use a charger which I happened to own when I bought the range finder. If you want a charger, I believe they are available from Amazon.com. P

Italy is included in the preloaded counties. I do not recommend to buy this unit, it stopped working 13 months after I purchased and I spent 10 hrs with Magellen chatting to get it fixed with no results. Claus Wutherich

The sky caddie watch can be charged by inserting the UBS cord included with it into a computer or I often insert tha cord into the same outlet plug that I use for my bb. This section that plugs into the outlet can be easily purchased at radion shack or mobile phone stores.

So far, I haven't used my computer to do anything except to recharge the WR67 battery with a USB port. I've played 6 courses, and all were pre-loaded.

Good question. I asked the manufacturer (UPG: www.upgi.com), and tech rep Elaine Kortkamp told me on 12/3/10 that the unit can only be charged via the AC connection. If you need that function, I think some of the Schumacher models have it.

Mine did. But I would not recommend purchasing this item. Callaway will not be supporting this GPS after December. If you play the same course all of the time, then it would be OK, but don't expect to add any new courses in the future.

The one that I received came with a defective battery. Since I had another device, that used the same battery, I was able to power up the new Upro and try it out. It worked fine with the new battery. However, when I went online to download courses, I learned that the device is becoming obsolete. Callaway will discontinue updates at the end of 2014. If you don't mind not being able to add new courses or update existing ones after 2014 then it may be fine for your use.

I just checked mine--it comes with a combo wall charger/USB charger. The cable plugs in to the GolfBuddy at one end and into the wall plug at the other, using a USB connector in to the wall plug device. Bottom-line it comes with all you need to enable either wall plug charging, or via computer using the USB connector.

The sky caddie watch can be charged by inserting the UBS cord included with it into a computer; or what I do most often is just plug it into a powered (plugged-in to a wall outlet) 3 hub USB unit. I do not have anything plugged into my computer powered from this USB unit - I only use it for charging things like my sky caddie watch, which you have to charge after every 18 to 36 holes; and some other small electronic that need occasional charging - I even use powered USB unit to charge my iPad.

It won't work. The plug will fit, but there is no software support on the 2015 Golf to interface with android devices.
