  1. Using a 3G iPad in the field, even with good cellular service, it is difficult to click on a marker without the selection screen closing immediately. The mapping works fine, sometimes there is a delay depending on resolution, then the markers appear. Sometimes it takes a tap, sometimes a double tap to open the screen that identifies the monument and gives you the option of what associated content you wish to view. At home on Wi Fi there are no issues whatsoever. Excellent product!!!!!!!!
  2. Excellent on iPad as well. It is like having a program like DSWorld on my iPad. Awesome.
  3. Please elaborate on the issues that I may have with delorme. Thank you Hud Hud It seems the DeLome apologist society has attacked me before I have even had a chance to respond to your question. I have two main concerns with the DeLorme. Hardware and Software. The DeLorme I had, had a battery life of about 20 to 30 minutes. Also the screen was too small. It also was not very user friendly. I like a unit that I can hit the ground running with and not have to spend a tremendous amount of time reading a manual. I'm sure there are people that love to read technical manuals but I'm just not one of them. The software I had to purchase in addition was called Cache Advance and it never worked at all. It would fail ever time I tried to launch it. I did enjoy the accuracy of the DeLorme though. It was the best I have ever seem. Again the group that attacks me here all the time seems to forget that I posted favorable remarks too. I wish you well and hope you are happy with your purchase. WB I have no dog in this fight. I have a Magellan Crossover 2500T. It's a piece of garbage, but I'm cool with it. Regardless, any GPS with a witnessed battery life of 20-30 minutes is obviously an individual component issue, and certainly not representative of their production in general. I am sorry that personally and anecdotally you have had a poor experience with a Delorme unit, but in my view it clearly seems that the PN-60w is the best GPS on the market.
