Flem's Baby Jesus's B-day present got me to thinking...
What do yall have, and how do you like it? I have the Microsoft Streets and Trips for the computer and it came with a small usb "antenna" that you can throw on your dash while driving. It works real well for trips, but you have to have room for a laptop in your front seat somewhere for this to be feasible. Jotto Desk makes a good vehicle laptop desk if anyone ever cares to look this far into it. I have an etrex at the house, but dont know any more about it than it is yellow and black, and has a monochrome display. The MS S&T's is a great progam for mapping out trips. It allows you to print out driving maps (which you can e-mail pictures of to family and friends if needed), turn by turn directions, and combinations of both. You can also plug in the cost of fuel, your estimated MPG for the trip and your fuel tank size, and it will give you estimated refill points along w/ the cost of the trip in fuel. I am looking to pick up a handheld that can be plugged in to the laptop and act as the antenna, and also be a good trail mapping tool.
Here are some of the previous GPS threads that got started on here.
