  1. Hi guys!

    I've got Pocket Streets on my PocketPC that I use for GPS but I was
    wondering if it's possible to get OS maps for a Pocket PC to use with GPS?

    I think so. See www.anquet.com for a starter. (There are others, but
    that's the one I have.)

    Multimap and Anquet do. You can read about them and their differences

    Excellent product. I have the whole UK at 1:50k and the Harveys bits of
    Scotland at 1:25k. Great for use with a GPS (i.e. it makes route
    planning possible!)

    Anquets PPC side is not great however. You can upload OS Maps to your
    PPC easy enough, and with a GPS attached you can track your actual
    position. However, you can't re-plan routes on the PPC alone. If you
    want that function, look at MemoryMap instead.

    You'll find lots of comparisons and general GPS banter at uk.rec.walking
    - use Google Groups to search for old threads.
