[gps-talkusers] Re: Gps Scottsdale and me:

Thanks very much.  I had a trekker for a little while, but I couldn't get 
Visuaide to put out a usable denver map togetyher.  They kept leaving 
counties out that I needed.  I don't have a braille note, so I haven't 
played with the most recent system.  I did really enjoy GPS talk because the 
whole country is in the hard drive.   Gerry
