Pres & Phillip and all,

What kind of GSP units are you using with SA, and what do they run?  I got a 
copy of SA last year, and never used it much because I ended up getting MS 
Streets for $6 after rebate and copying the entire thing to my 6.4GB drive.

But now I think I have the Lib list posting on how to get the SA CD running 
from the HDD, and I've learned about SA's moving map and directions come 
through audio.

A friend told me he got a Garmin GPS Map 12 for about $250 a few years back. 
  So I looked on EBay thinking that I should be able to pick up one for 
under $100 these days.  But to my surprise, that're going for $150-$200 
used!

I think Delorme offers a cheap GPS unit to attach to a laptop for around 
$40... is that right?  But I was thinking that during the day, it'd be 
impossible to see the SA map on the Lib LCD very well.  It looks like a lot 
of the Garmin GPSs have a map readout that might be a lot more readable in 
daylight inside a car.

I was wondering what your experiences have been.  Do you, or anyone else, 
know if there any good GPS units that will interface with SA on a Lib that 
have their own map display for under $100 used or new?

I figure if MusicMatch runs as well as it does on this 70CT running W98, and 
will play MP3s while I multitask... I'm guessing SA should run pretty well 
too.

I can load my copy of SA now and check out how well it runs without the GPS 
for you if you'd like Pres.

Matt
