ANyone have any experience with > running GPS > on Libs? The StreetAtlas series from Delorme seems to work fairly well for the US. Don't know of ANY good software for Europe. Programs which let you scan the maps in and calibrate them (like OziExplorer) seem like too much trouble to me, although if you stick to one particular area a lot then maybe it wouldn't be too bad to set up a map or two. The upside with them is that as long as you can get a paper map of your area, you can use the software. I have used the Delorme Tripmate GPS and now have a Garmin GPS 45 on the boat which interfaces brilliantly to the Libretto. Personally I hate the tangle of wires that plugging a GPS and Laptop in the car make. I've thought seriously about a more imbedded design... maybe including a MP3 player as well... I'd hate to hack up a Libretto for that though, I'd probably just go with a "biscuit PC". David ===== [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
