Sorry if it sounds like I'm putting Anquet down. I've got one of their titles as well and there doesn't seem much difference between them and Memory Map in terms of functionality. The 2D drawing in ... |

I've received an email from Memory Map that says that they will have the new Right to Roam information available via their Selections service from early November. It will obviously only be for the ar ... |

Memory Map do the whole country at 1:25000 via their Selections service. The website has a "Coming Soon" sort of message but I sent them an email and ordered 10,000sqkm at £200 (they also do 2500sqkm ... |

Thanks for the pointer to the easier way of handling pixel-doubling.
I see that there's another way of getting apps to use VGA with the release of a new VGA mode app for 2003SE:

It probably makes text more difficult to read with navigation apps that are geared towards a certain resolution, but it actually makes most OS or A-Z maps much easier to read. This is because you can ... |

Thanks for the link - those pictures really show the difference that a VGA screen makes. I'm impressed that TomTom2 makes the most of the extra resolution by showing more of the map rather than just ... |
