What I mean is on the trekker you can see each street and the layout of the
land. Yes, you can "browse offline" if you have a preplanned route, but you
don't have the ability in version one of the trekker to make routes but you
can go intersection by intersection like a sighted person does when he reads
a map.
This has been a real disappointment with me because the rest of the program
is simply breathtaking, especially when I got stopped the other day by a
totally frantic lady who didn't seem to care whether I was blind or sighted
because she was looking for a street which I had just been on, and I a blind
person could tell her how to get to the street and where the place she was
late for an appointment was.
