Contact me directly when you get a chance and we can talk in more detail but a VERY rough timeline would be 3-8 weeks.

will do. That is pretty good. I don't have a pressing need.

The latest version of Overland Navigator is now available. In addition to software enhancements, we now have map-pack support for most western states down to 1:24k and maps for the entire US down to 1:100k.

Craig, I may have missed it somewhere in this thread but are there plans, or is there current availability, for a Mac-compatible version of this?

[craig]

There aren't any plans for a Mac compatible version at this time.

While not supported, one customer reported that version 1.0 ran under Parallels. We haven't tried version 2.0.

Where's the Mac love?! Seriously though, very cool product. Looking forward to being able to use it someday.

Craig, forgive my retardedness. I just purchased an HP TX1000z notebook/tablet touch screen computer, for use in my vehicle, with your software and a few other things.

I will be using this primarily on the east coast, so I will have to make due with the USA basemap in the 1:100K scale. I am ok with that. My questions: (bare with me)


1.) Just confirming, I need to buy the software AND the USA Map Pack correct? And if I want a specific map, I just buy that map itself. Once I buy the software, I can buy or add any map pack I want to right?

2.) I *thought* I remember seeing on your website something about "what GPS units are compatible"... I cant find it now, am I going crazy or? I have a "on road" style GPS with USA road maps, will the softare be able to use this GPS signal, or does it have to have a specfic GPS system?

3.) This doesnt really have anything to do with your software, but perhaps you can answer. How do I hook the GPS to the computer? Does the Overland Navigator automatically recognize the GPS signal?

I am probably making this way more complicated than it is, but I just dont want to buy something that wont work for me.

Craig,

When do you anticipate releasing map packs for Utah and New Mexico?

Can anyone summarize whether Overland Navigator is a great choice for topo? Currently have an HP tablet but a smaller netbook might also be good. Need recommendations.
