    MapSource TOPO

    By cabin cowboy  Nov 2, 2003 | 3 out of 4 found this MapSource United States TOPO review helpful

    Pros: Easy to use.

    Cons: $80 to $100

    Connects to GPS to trasfer data to and from Garmin GPS units with maping capabilities. Data such as waypoints, tracks, and routes can be transfered to map and stored or printed on a map. Erases the units base map of the area when new map data is tra...nsfered. Lacks some detail such as city street names and some "back roads" trails or roads. A better choice for city streets and general road travel would be the Gamin "Metro Guide" version 5.0. (another $85 to $120). Read more Less

    BEWARE:Doesn't transfer to eTrex GPS

    By 11  May 11, 2008

    Pros: overpromised

    Cons: underperforms

    Simply unable to transfer any useful data to Garmin etrex vista. Software surprisingly useless. Tried many ways to modify parameters both with the unit and download wizard and this software seems to always end in "communication error" which... is disappointing after a long download. Attempting to download for the Topo US 2008 CD also erases the database that comes on the unit!!! This leaves you with NO data in the GPS. National Geographic's mapping software not compatible with downloading but still is a seemingly more funcitonal product and actually works with the Garmin units. Read more Less
