Hi guys,
I recently purchased a nifty little I-Blue 737 Bluetooth GPS reciever for my PDA then a friend bought me the DisdoverAus Streets & Maps with Mapsend for Christmas.He knew the CD was published for the Magellan units but figured I could use the maps on the disk however I have not been able to find how to use the maps. There is an option within Mapsend to save files to SD card or hard disk but the Upload Wizard still prompts me to enter a Magellan davice serial number. Is there a way for me to convert these maps to useable files for my Windows 2003 PDA operating system or are there any navigation programs available for my PDA which would import the maps from Mapsend? Has my friend blown his $250? What is the meaning of life (other than 42) Out of here

Looks like he wasted his money. 8O

The maps are intended for use on a Magellan mapping GPS unit - which is why it is asking for a serial number. You can link it to 2 Magellan units. It's a bit like the Mapsource products for Garmin mapping GPS units.
