Nautical Charts of the whole continent plus a lot more....uses Google
Earth coupled to your GPS data.....$50!

Take a look at the video....

The days of the $2000 proprietary chart plotter ripoff is ending...

...right on your laptop or handheld tablet.

Can it be used without an internet connection? *

If not, then it's not quite ready for chart plotter replacement duty,
not by a long shot.

Yes. *All the charts come on a $50 CD for North America. *It stores all the
map tiles from Google on your hard drive prior to leaving home...just like
my Nokia N800 internet tablet's Maemo Mapper does. *Then it goes to the
memory for the map tiles of satellite photos, for instance.

The only thing it needs internet for is the live, realtime weather/points
of interest/stuff that can't be stored. *Everything else is your GPS input.

This is really cool looking stuff.- Hide quoted text -
