More Information: Contact Maptech www.maptech.com or call 1-888-839-5551 Outdoor Navigator was announced a few months ago during it's beta stage. I was lucky enough (along with a few other MoDaCo members) to take part in helping to test this application while in it's development stage. From what I have seen so far this is an excellent app and for those of us who like to get off the beaten track one in a while this will prove to be an invaluble application to have. At the present time only the USA is covered but I have ben told by Maptech that they plan to expand ion this shortly, so hopefully a UK version will not be far behind.
