You're quite welcome of course. Jeff has done some very cool things
with that ActiveCaptain web site.

My brother uses his PDA and a Blackberry with a PCMA (or whatever that
slot thingy is called) GPS receiver and Maptech software.

I've never been impressed with the GPS performance on the PDA and even
out in Narragansett Bay, the Blackberry can be problematic in GPS
mode. It's not a question of functionality - it works fine, but the
signal aquisition is position dependant - you're constantly fiddling
with placement to get the best fix.

Not my thing. As a backup, yeah maybe, but not as a main navigation
device.
