GPS Mapping Software
HINT: If you already have a hiking GPS unit like a Magellan Meridian
Platinum and don't want to buy a "road" GPS, Magellan sells a software called MapSend Direct Route
(U.S. and Europe versions) that is an excellent software. It will provide you with detailed street maps
and points of interest as well as routing (commands are audible but not spoken). It is a
life-saver when you are lost in an unfamiliar city.
