Hi:
Occasionally roads are known by other names, but unfortunately a sighted
person can't see the maps. Now, I don't know if using your PC as a
visual display would work.

Subject: [gps-talkusers] Strange question


Hi Everybody,
        I just received my GPS on Friday, and am really new.  I haven't
found the tutorials very helpful, but I think that's just because I do
better with Braille and pressure.
        Anyway, I'm learning as I go, but I do have a question that I
have no idea where to look up in the manual.
        Is there a place online or on the software disk where sighted
people can see the maps that the gps is using to get the road locations?
I ask this because I was discussing the gps with some of my coworkers.
I was talking about how I didn't know so many places around us existed,
and then I asked about a road.  That road seems to be an unknown road,
and one of my colleagues said that somebody else had asked her about it.
She can't find it--so I wanted to show her the map, and see if maybe
it's just been renamed.

Thanks,
Sarah
