[gps-talkusers] Re: I: Re: GPS with PDA

Hi,
I remember v 1.0 and creating manual routes as I walked along dropping
way points as I went.
The later route creating ability to tell the system if you are turning
left, right, or straight ahead will also allow a person to map their
frequent places of travel.

Hope this helps.
Chris
