Maptech Terrain Navigator

Anyone have any experience with this software? I download the demo program to my computer and it looks pretty sweet.

I have used this product since its first release as (TopoScout). I use it for both recreational and search and rescue. Easy to use and good support. Only downside I can say is that it seems many of the maps are old when compared to the paper copy available at a maps store. I would like to see an upgrade of the map CDs maintained as good as the way the Navigator software is maintained.

Been using it for about six months. Very few complaints. Two I have are: 1) you're required to change CDs if you want move to a map that isn't on the active CD (so much for "seamless" in those cases), and 2) it would be nice if you could draw in additional map features -- like a new road, or a fence line for example. It's pretty intuitive otherwise, and works flawlessly (so far) with my Summit.

Thanks to all who replied. I purchased the software and I LOVE IT! It is very enjoyable to plot out where the caches are (both for the ones I hide and for the ones I seek). If I would have had this tool a few weeks ago, I would have certainly changed my plan of attack when I went hunting for BigFig's caches in the Daniel Boone National Forest in Kentucky. Instead of finding just two, I could have probably found 4 in the same timeframe. I highly recommend this software!
