CLUNK CLUNK that about discribes BaseCamp. How can a company that designes such an intotative interface in their GPSs’ put out something like BaseCamp? Crashes, pointers that dissapear when you stop moving the mouse. How about a save button. I was never a great fan of MapSource but this is a giant leap backwards. Looking forward to some major fixes but I’m still looking for them for MapSource.

Brett, the DeLorme PN-40 can display BML areas, but it takes a bit of work.

I’ll be interested in it for geocaching purposes. I’ve often used USA Photomap’s topographical feature to plan my route into a cache site by avoiding unnecessary hills, marsh and water.

Typical Garmin marketing. How many newe programs and features have they announced in the past two months? 60-day map guarantee, nuMaps map subcription, BaseCamp, RoadTrip, EcoRoute all come to mind right away. What percentage of owners know about any of them? I’d guess under 10%, and maybe 2% for the newest announcements. If this was TomTom, it would be all over the place. Maybe Garmin should take a page from them and look to former Apple marketing people for a fresh approach.
