My god, it's taken them 12 years but a good idea providing value to the taxpayer at last!

I'd agree the competition is good but would say that it doesn't look any different from the Garmins. If anything it looks cheap, it's only a sneak peek I know but still. For a publicity shot it's not ...

Secondly how can the Satmap appear expensive when it is cheaper than the Garmin? Confused

Cos he said the maps covered a smaller area thus costing more for the same area as the Garmin.

Thanks for the replies. The salesman did dismiss the Satmap as not rugged and seemed to dismiss it with a wave of his arm, and for what he said appeared expensive.

First thing is never trust a sal ...

As a matter of interest, has anyone used the all UK 50k maps in the Paek District and had to deal with this issue?

I live in Sheffield and am in the Peaks every week. I have the UK South Map in the ...

I was slightly miffed seeing as I bought mine in January.

Then I saw the price! No thanks...got mine for £240 and not that fussed about a postcode searcher. Do mountains have postcodes? Laughing

.map is just a .gpx that SatSync has run through some code to standardise (and simplify?) the tags/data when you select the Import function in SatSync.

AFAIK anyway!

90% of the gripes could be solved by Satmap spending 1% of the time they spend replying to emails individually on a Corporate Blog/News Page for general consumption. It would stop the vast majority of ...

Is your software 1.2 or 1.3?
(Look in - Settings - About)
If it is 1.2, then update via the website.
If it is 1.3, you may have a faulty unit.
I used to lock-up frequently when 1.2, but ...

Well Cotswold Outdoors finally delivered my Satmap this week and I was out on Wednesday for a little 6/7 mile loop in the White Peaks to test it out.

It was fantastic to create a route on wheresth ...

Well with the flurry of activity around the new Update and the fact it seems the Route Planner may (may!) be close I've gone for it.

Thanks to this forum for the 20% off voucher for Coltswold Outdo ...

My head is telling me to go for the Garmin as they have been in the business for a very long time. However, their range of OS maps seems to be both limited and quite expensive compared to the SatMap 1 ...

On a bit of a tangent from my original question but looks like there is no sign of any sort of Active 20 to usurp my purchase!

I've seen the Active 10 is in the sale at Amazon and that is now match ...

I have to say I think they have their heads on the wrong way round with regard to updating their website etc. Nowadays an up to date website or blog is embarrassingly easy to maintain. This would redu ...

I think I already know the answer here but wondered anyway.

I'm looking at buying an Active 10 after Xmas, hopefully in the sales and I just wondered if anyone has anyone inkling of any sort of ha ...
