Description:
SkyMap 2000/GPS is a GPS-guided, voice-activated mapping system, and comes with an ear/mic accessory for use on the road. SkyMap turns your notebook into a travel tool with over 1 million points of interest, a user-created Address Book for contacts and locations, over 6.5 million miles of roads that cover all 50 states, and drawing tools to customize your printed maps and driving directions.SkyMap 2000/GPS tracks your progress by marking your current position on a digital map display. An earth-orbiting satellite network--built by the U.S. defense department--transmits real-time positioning to SkyMap's 12-channel GPS receiver. Although only four satellite signals are required to establish a GPS location, the SkyMap 2000/GPS receiver can receive up to 12 satellite signals at any given time to increase accuracy and reduce response time. The receiver dash mounts for safety and uses your PCMCIA slot. SkyMap 2000/GPS will plan a route from start to destination, and include all of your stops. Your route is displayed on a digital map that you can print out along with driving directions. You also can let SkyMap 2000/GPS track you and call out audible driving directions to you as you drive.
