Copyright 2003
Type: Interactive mapping software that runs on a Palm handheld.
Download selected maps from Street Atlas USA on the PC to the Palm
version. Works with GPS to show current location, direction, elevation,
etc on colored PDA maps.
Cool software, especially working with a Palm compatible GPS to let you know right where you are. Can’t exactly replace a good paper map though. Of course a paper map can’t let you know where you are or which direction you’re headed.
