Re: GPS where no maps are available

> If it's only one track any GPS reciever will do.

No, it's a few locations. Basically restaurants
or nice spots lost in the mountains, friend's houses,
other places of interest in the city.

What difference does it make if it's one track or
many? One goal I have is to map out directions starting
from a central point (say downtown) and go from there.



> BTW: there is no part on this planet without a map . . .

Really? Even street maps? Any source for these
maps?


Also, any specific models to recommend?


Thanks!!!
