It's Earthmate GPS LT20 by DeLorme. Less than a hundred bucks. The GPS is
a small yellow puck that plugs into your USP port and sits on the dash.
Reads the satalights (sp) through the wind shield. Works realy great.

There's a program that Doc is probably using called "MS Streets & Trips",
which comes with an antenna for the roof of your car. It actually shows a
little car moving across a map as you travel.

I don't guess you'd want to take your laptop out on the boat, would you?
If
so, you could just connect the two and use the entire laptop screen map.

Pentheney has a gizmo he hooks into his USB port. Its a little GPS module
with an antenna cord that he lays on the dashboard, and he just drives
along
with his laptop open on the passenger seat. It tracks him all the way on
his
big screen... even has a female voice that alerts him before he reaches
an
intersection where he needs to make a turn.

Maybe you could set it up so this female voice says, "cast just toward
that
cedar tree... there's a submerged brush pile about fifty feet from you in
that direction." Wouldn't that be useful?

I bought a small handheld GPS unit earlier this year, when the fish
started
moving deeper, I began marking anything I got hung up on out in open
water,
well it has paid off. I'm catching fish and eliminating a lot of useless
water( I think) the problem is with the 3 lakes I fish, my GPS map looks
like a sprinkeled donut from an ariel view, dots everywhere. Any good
handhelds with larger screens? I am currently using a Garmin E-trex
