DeLorme have released an update to one of their bread and butter products.
DeLorme's 3-D TopoQuads® 2.0 assembles all of the USGS Quads for each state or region into one seamless database. This makes using the Quads quite a bit easier, and decreases the amount of map changing you have to do. The 3-D view is a nice gimmick, too.



Find out more here:

Prices start at 99.95 USD per state and are higher for bigger or more popular states (who'd have thunk Nevada is much requested...)

I feel I should point out that this product has been on the market for at least 2.5 years which was when I started working for an engineering company that had the original 1.0 version and I recommended they upgrade to 2.0 to get the latest features (primarly the ability to store maps on the hard drive). I wonder why this percolated up and suddenly became a news item?

I believe the novelty is the seamless version of the maps. Haven''t tested it myself yet though.
