It's a powerful way to create and save detailed GPS-accurate maps for use on the desktop software and on the GPS.

Topo USA/Earthmate PN-20 Map Exchange Overview
DeLorme has pre-cut U.S. multi-state regions within the included Topo USA software. This allows you to update the world base map on the GPS with more detailed routable U.S. highway and major roads for your region(s) of interest. This design maximizes user-available, on-device internal memory for even more detailed topographic maps and imagery you cut from Topo USA of your precise areas of interest. The Eastern 1(A) multi-state region, as an example, requires 12 MB, with a total of 75 MB available on the device. These precut regions are located in the left window of the Handheld Exchange dialog, which is also where your map packages, waypoints, and tracks will be stored once created. (Note: you can store up to 2 GB of data on an SD card. The SD card slot is located within the battery compartment, beneath the batteries.)

The PN-20--Topo USA 7.0 System comes with:

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Earthmate GPS
My Earthmate GPS works great. The only thing I would change is the USB plug on the devise. It sometimes fails to make good contact and needs to be cleaned befor connection. I also would like to have control over the device odometer so I can match it up with the actual miles I have on my bike.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hidden capabilities
A most versatile product for handheld use. I have navigation in my car and a low cost Garmin nuvi I use for driving when using rentals, but for all other uses this unit is substantially more complex in capabilities and benefits. Excellent screen fully visible in full sunlight. Also, the unit will use SDHC cards up to 32 GB. I confirmed this with Delorme customer support before trying it.




Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - GPS device is decent, software isn't.
I have been using Delorme software since Street Atlas 4.0 (1996) and their Earthmate GPS devices since they were released- unfortunately the software interface has barely changed since then and it's difficult to use when compared to much more intuitive mapping software like Google Maps/Earth, Microsoft Live Maps, and Mapquest. In fact after buying Street Atlas 2007 last year and a car with a GPS built in I figured I would probably never buy or need Delorme software again... but then I picked up a ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - meant for hikers
I have been very happy with the Delorme products on my laptop. I have also been quite unhappy with other GPS devices like Garmin and TomTom, so I decided to try the PN-20. This is for use in a vehicle and the display on the PN-20 is too small for use in a vehicle. I have returned the PN-20 and will continue using my laptop.




Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - unstable firmware
Out of the box, the unit I got kept locking up and rebooting. Very unstable. Delorme suggested I upgrade to firmware 1.3, but the unit was already at that level so N/A. Unuseable.
