I just hope that Garmin are not gradually getting rid of all of Garmap products!

First was DEM mapset, now mobile, just hope Topo and Streetmaps will survive!

Indecently Wisepilot is Navtec based. One can never say never but map coverage to the north of us by Navtec still has a long way to go to catchup with what Garmap has available currently.
