Garmin MapSource U.S.A. Topographical Map CD-ROM (Windows) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this product for hikes and to guide me in navigating rivers. Only very major roads are named so I can't use this very easily to calculate my route there. Most roads are there but they just vanish at some points and reappear in others. Using a real topo map it is immediately obvious that these same roads do not dissapear and in fact continue on their course uninteruppted like a road should. The elevations and detail are very course. No trails are shown. I am not very happy I bought this product and am going to look into the roads and recreation to see if it does a better job. FYI I bought this to use with my Etrex Legend which I think is just great.

Garmin's United States TOPO MapSource CD-ROM is similar to U.S. Geological Survey 1:100,000-scale topographic paper maps. It includes trip and waypoint management functions that allow you to transfer waypoints, routes, and tracks between your PC and nearly all Garmin GPS units (excluding the GPS 100 family and panel-mount aviation units). With MapSource, you can view highways, roads, hiking trails, snowmobile trails, backwoods trails, elevation contours, point and summit elevations, some bathymetric contours, geographic names, churches, and schools. Shoreline detail is included for lakes, reservoirs, small bodies of water, waterways, rivers, and streams. Icons represent boat ramps, dams, marinas, campgrounds, public facilities, mile markers, first aid stations, picnic sites, swimming areas, ski areas, wrecks, fuel locations, and dangerous and restricted areas.
In addition, nautical navigational aids for the 50 states are provided, including radio beacons, RACONs, and fog signals; river, harbor, and other lights; and day beacons and lighted and unlighted buoys. Shipwrecks, submerged rocks, obstructions, and other hazards to nautical navigation are also displayed.
Note on compatibility: The trip and waypoint management functions of this product work with nearly all Garmin GPS units, excluding the GPS 100 family and panel-mount aviation units. Specifically, the map-download features of this product work with the eTrex Legend, eTrex Vista, eMap, GPS V, StreetPilot, StreetPilot ColorMap, StreetPilot III, and GPSMAP 76, 162, 168, 176, and 295. Some units may require a Garmin data card to upload map data.

Deluo 31-919-22 Laptop MouseGPS, Mobile Mouse and GPS Device in One, with Microsoft Streets and Trips 2008 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have used DeLuo 31-311-01 USB Notebook GPS with mapping software and for Automatic Position Reporting with Ham Radio APRS and been satisfied with their performance. Then I purchased the 31-919-22 MouseGPS. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. It claims it can be either a mouse or a GPS, but not both at the same time. There is a switch on the bottom to select the mode. The mouse mode lasted ten minutes as I scrolled thru e-mail, then the axle for the scroll wheel sheared off and the wheel leaned left and rubbed on the case. A replacement MouseGPS did the same thing. The GPS function does not give a location most of the time. I have used DeLuo's own "GPS Diagnostics" and run this unit for twelve to sixteen hours waiting for it to find a location. Very rarely and only for a moment did it ever give a location. I even ran it beside DeLuo's own 31-311-01 notebook GPS. The 31-311-01 locked in on a location in a few minutes and stayed locked in. A replacement MouseGPS never locked onto a location.
Today 1-18-2010 none of the bookmarks I have for DeLuo work. Immediately I get a site not found message on all of them. I believe that their MouseGPS dragged them under and the company is gone. The 31-311-01 USB GPS has served me well and still works. The 31-919-22 MouseGPS never worked right and neither did the warranty replacement.
