All recent updates purchased directly from DeLorme, around $69 per year. Only been updating every-other year for the past few versions. We are active geocachers, and for the toad and handheld we use a Garmin iQue M5, which is also a Pocket PC so we have all the cache data as well as maps. Around $500 as I remember, but out of production. Don Bradner 90 PT40 "Blue Thunder" Posting today by satellite from Declo, Idaho, enroute to Salt Lake City On 9/12/2007 at 5:00 PM Howard O.

It's basically a gps sensor with a long cable and all the map and routing software included. It connects to you USB port. I paid about $110 from Walmart-online. The software alone costs twice that if you purchased it separately, so it's a great bargain if you already bring along a laptop or if you want the benefit of a large screen. I bought a TARGUS DC to DC converter to power the laptop as I drive. Brent 77 FC31 Ventura, CA --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "Howard O.

I have had a lot of GPS systems over the years since the beginning. With all of the features and software evolution in most of the name brands, it would be hard to go wrong with any of them. GPS - smquandt - 09-12-2007 22:28 Howard I use Garmin N-Route on my laptop. I think it cost about $130.00. I like it the screen size on a laptop better than the smaller GPS. I routed a power supply from behind my set of front drawers to the top of the large flat part of the dash. I keep the inverter on so I am running on AC not the battery. Also keep an internet connection, Email and connection back to the office running via air card at the same time.

I also use a blue tooth wireless GPS signal finder which has worked perfectly sitting at the bottom of the windshield.
