: http://tinyurl.com/2buhlk Jim, take a little cruise of Maemo Mapper, a freeware Google Earth that's connected to the WAAS/GPS bluetooth receiver for the Nokia N800 Linux internet tablet. It put you within 3' of the Virtual Earth, Google Earth or the great topographical maps of Terra Server....all free sources of data for it. The maps download on-the-fly, or you can preload them into the memory cards if you don't have a bluetooth data link to your cellphone. Watch the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=698iql3B824 Here it is in France: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sC3uV...eature=related The little GPS receiver is packaged with commercial Navicore nav software, which is totally separate from the hacker's Maemo Mapper. It drives you with audio and map routes. Here it is in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_c2bz...eature=related It's a full computer with lots of other functions besides navigation. While navigating, with the bluetooth connected through your cellphone or any wifi that will let you in, you can use email, webpages, talk on Skype or Google Talk (full webcam video on Google Talk from tiny cam that pops out) or other VoIP phone services, get weather and marine warning information in realtime just like you can on your web browser at home. Lots great boat things it can do....besides being able to zoom Google Earth in on that creek over there to see where it goes before going up it...(c; Larry -- Xterm IS the ultimate video game...(c; |

For that price, you can do the same with preloaded images and updatable maps already on units from Garmin and TomTom. |

Tom look on your TOMTOM at state road 429 which starts in Apopka Florida and it ends at I4 near Clermont. My Garmin shows it ending where it crosses the Turnpike. This is a recently completed road and I'm curious as to weather TomTom shows the complete road. Thanks. Happy T day. Jim |

I see 429 and it looks like it connects, but a road name would help. Thanks. Happy T day. Back at 'cha. |

Thanks Jim Ok doke- give me a minute. Well... I'm going out on a limb here and say that yes - it does show the connector. What I can't make out is if it's marked as "completed" or as "proposed". I know that doesn't answer your question - thats' the best I can do. |
