However there were some places in Italy where I ran in to areas that were recently / currently under construction and in these areas, some wrong turns were indicated. I found that selecting the route did not always work, but that clicking on the route on the map and then clicking on Properties to get to the Directions solved the problem.Д¤ - The turn-by-turn directions were mostly spot on. There is no need to delete the existing maps in the unit before loading a new map in - your upload simply writes over the current maps.ДЈ - The only bugs I noticed have to do with getting at the underlying directions for Routes you create.

The download / upload process was relatively pain free and reasonably fast.

I purchased this software with the Garmin GPSMap 60Cx and offer the following comments.ДЎ - Ignore the picture showing V6 - This REALLY is version 8 for sale.Дў - The software was mostly easy to use. For our trip we flew in to Rome, drove to a rural area an hour outside Florence, spent a week there and drove to Florence, then on to Parma, the Loire valley and finally on to Paris. Points of interest such as food and drink lodging border cross Detailed maps containing motorways national and regional thoroughfares and local roads with attributes such as roundabouts turn restrictions speed categories and other navigation features. Premium detailed maps of major metropolitan areas in 7 regions in Western Europe. Trip and waypoint management functions for use with Garmin Streetpilot III GPS receiver. As Garmin only publish updates, you'll need an old version to start with.Garmin MapSource City Navigator Europe (CD-ROM) The advantage of keeping your old disks is that once you have installed MapSource you can download the latest updates. You'll find an almost second by second detailed view of your route: Speed, distance, elevation. Having planned your route you can then look at the actual roads and get a good idea of what the quality of road is what junctions look like villages/towns layout of fuel stops from the road other interesting things!ДЄnother neat trick is to collect the trip log from your unit and look at in MapSource. MapSource also integrates with Google Earth. One for fine weather which would typically take me the 'scenic' route, the other is for when the weather is not so good and I just want to 'get there'. Recalculationg is much faster, and adding routepoints or waypoints is really easy. It's very easy to get the route to follow the roads you want rather than the rather crude Shortest/Fastest option on the unit itself. I use it for all my European trips as I can plan where to have coffee/fuel stops, where to deviate from main roads, and generally have total control over my trip.

MapSource is great for sitting at your PC and planning routes. I have some mapsource discs from ab old GPS unit (EMAP) - is it worth keeping? My nuvi has the europe maps already installed so was wondering what benefits there is of mapsource ? You just import the ones you need for immediate use, the others remain on long term storage ready to be called upon when required (having deleted routes in the GPS mapping area to make room for them).

Here you set your home location, view pictures as well as importing data (routes and/or waypoints and/or trip logs) and managing the Trip Log.ДЄlthough the units may not appear to hold as many routes as you think you might want, the storage card/unit memory can hold many more.

On the Zumo this is done via the 'User Data' icon. Step two is to import the routes into the GPS mapping portion of the unit itself. This just puts them in a storage area on the unit, but not visible to the GPS function. Step one (which you seem to have done) is to copy the files to the unit (I tend to put the routes onto a memory card, and then plug that into the Zumo). Which Garmin unit do you have? I have a Zumo, and getting routes into it is a two stage afair. Which folder or icon does it go into to retrieve it? Hi have tried planing a route on Mapsource then sent it to GPS but cant find it anyware.
