I've just order GpsMap 60csx and getting it tomorrow. Trying to decide

which maps i should purchase. Shud I buy the City Nav NA DVD or get it

on the microSd? Is there an advantage to having the DVD or having only

on the microSd card?

I also plan to get the Topo 2008. Mainly using the GPS for hunting,

cacheing and Rv'g thruout US and Alaska. Are these maps the right

choice or should i get something else?

Get CN on DVD, as the SD cards you buy only hold one small area. They work out much more expensive.

 

Get CN, and buy a 1 or 2gb SD card, so you can fit all the maps on at once :)

Depends - how cheap are you? :) There's a free program called Metrowizzz (and a $6.00 version called MetroGold) that will allow you to add auto-routing to Metroguide maps. Metroguide doesn't have Garmin's restrictive unlocking mechanism, so you can use it on as many GPS receivers as you want. A used copy of Metroguide is a lot cheaper than City Navigator...

DVD.

 

I use the autorouting-enabled MGNA8 on my 60cx; works great.
