    Anyone use the Earthmate GPS PN-20?

    in GPS technology and devices

    Posted

    hi all. new owner(well will be on wed.)here.

    I was wondering if i need to go through "GSAK" anymore or just through topo7 to load the gpx files.

     

    also how hard is it to transfer tracks back to Topo7 and print a map from it? i will be using the PN-20 to course mark and route track the course in off-road racing. this helps us find broke down race cars/trucks.

     

    I'm sure there are going to be more questions soon so thanks for you reply's.

    Delorme GPS PN-20

    hello all.

    Well i ordered my PN-20 this morning. i did some number crunching and found out that if you order the $299.95 bundle (pn-20,1gb sd,) then add the travel power kit ($49.95) total $349.90. It is still less than the sale price of the pn-20 deluxe bundle ($379.95).

     

    any way i can't wait untill X-MAS so i can open it. (I love my wife). it should be here Thurs. or Friday.

    I've been using an ancient Palm HandSpring with Cachemate for a while and am thinking about upgrading. I'm interesting in the following capabilities, more or less in this order, and would like to spend $200 or less:

    1. Viewing cache pages off-line (like Cachemate)
    2. Viewing maps off-line. I have MS S&Ts, so was thinking of Pocket S&Ts.
    3. Wireless access for browsing internet at coffee shops.
    4. In-vehicle navigation with a GPS.
    5. Would be nice to replace my cell phone so I don't have to carry that around too.

    I'm ok with shopping eBay for a used or refurbished device to keep the price down. Any suggestions on devices I should consider ... Palm, Pocket PC, specific brands or models?

     

    Thanks.

     

    have you looked at the T-mobile "sidekick" i think it's preety cool.
