As ugly as upside-down labels? To avoid those (if you will allow track
up mode)
I'm quite happy to have north up, just like I get in my web browser :-)

up mode) you'd have to have a combination raster and vector mode,
which would in turn require a label-free raster map.

BTW if you mean ugly as in ugly icons, you can create your own by defining
a TYP file. Just don't expect too much from a 24x24 bitmap

When I heard about the possibility of OSM on Garmin, I imagined
something like the Mapnik Slippy Map on my GPS screen. Now I have a
Legend HCx, it turns out that I get the Garmin vector rendering with OSM
data behind it. This is clearly much better than nothing, but does the

A quick google came up with this:

I had previously heard of Moagu, as noted in that article, but strayed

Could be. But they'd look a heck of a lot nicer, and have useful

Actually, it's not as bad as I thought. They didn't show on the zoom
