I have a Compaq Aero 2180 w/ 32 meg, running Windows CE 2.11 (Watered down Ipaq).. I have the Magellan Tracker with the PC cable. I wanted to know if anyone knew of any mapping software for windows CE or Pocket PC with GPS capability. I checked out Delorme Slous Pro 1.5 and it is only for WinCE 2.0 and they even said themselves that its a crappy,buggy program, dont waste my money on it.
So, Im looking for alternatives.
Thanx for any help

There's some discussion about this sort of thing on the Voy board right now. Allen/Xterrafiles seems to know something about 'em.

I found a great program for my Compaq that will use ANY GPS. check out.. http://teletype.com
I'll be ordering it next week, hopefully. It gives you full street mapping, With voice directions if you want. You can remap your destination if you make a wrong turn. This gets even better.. It has a full topographical feature where you can actually use your GPS on a topo map in scale. In addition to using a topo map, you can use a shaded relief map or EVEN Airiel(sp?) photographs. checkout..http://terraserver.com
its $95 and includes all of that and the serial adpater to plug the GPS into the Compaq Ipaq, leaving your Compact flash card slot open for a memory card to store all of your maps..
It kix major ass..
I'll hopefully get mine soon. I'll write a review of it after I use it..
