A bonus is that Fugawi can now be used with a Palm or HP handheld along
with
a miniature dedicated GPS unit.


I have the Fugawi Palm software and Maptech's Outdoor Navigator. Again, no
comparison. Outdoor Navigator is a sweet deal - you get EVERY NOAA chart in
the US with the software for $99. They also give you every USGS topo (about
60,000 of them) but they aren't good for boating use - they are nice to look
at though! With Fugawi, you get chart pieces. It's cute and makes a nice
demo but isn't really prime time for really using in your boat or dinghy.
Outdoor Navigator is a real chartplotter with routes, waypoints and is made
to be used on a boat. You can't go wrong with it...
