I looking for a decent software package for developing routes of travel. I don't have a GPS yet, but will in the near future. Requirements: WIN95, 98 compatibles Configure-able trips, i.e: No freeways, all two lane, etc. Would be nice if: It was CE down load-able, but not required. Courses loadable to the future GPS (don't know model or maker yet) Any contributors of information? --- Rev.
