All I can say is RUN from Magellan. I can't belive the company that had such a pioneering lead in hand held GPS has fallen to worst of class. I have owned 6 magellans. from merideans, explorists roadmate, and my latest Triton 500. I must say the Triton, Vantaqe Point, and their convoluted approach to propriatary and S/N encripted maps and software make this product such a pain that I stopped using it. Follows is an excerpt from a letter I sent to every magellan email contact i could find on their web site. Not one response. Not even an acknologement. Magellan ??? Run away !!
On the PC Miler unit, the directories where the navigation app and maps are, are corrupted. Like with the RightWay the built in shell allows redirecting the navigation app launch to any WinCE executable. Explorer will not delete the corrupted directories. Like regular Windows the stupid thing hugs and protects corrupted folders and files instead of offering to get rid of them. If there was a program like Unlocker for WinCE they could be deleted.
The Meridian doesn't know about disk directories or folders, so mapsthat you wish to used must be located in the root of theSD card. Any map files stored in any sub folder will be invisible totheGPS unit.
