Hi listers,

Dean's right, Ovimaps is not as intuitive as Breeze.

Cheers,

Mike

I haven't tested this first hand but am unsure whether OVI Maps will give
you info when just walking around and exploring like Trekker or Trekker
Breeze do.  You really need to take OVI Maps out for a few walks, both on
routes and on general walks, in the car and to just sit at home and see
what's around.  Then you will get a better feel.  For example, how quickly
can you put in a point of interest?  You don't want to stop and go through a
number of menus to do this.
