Purchase for Map Software for Edge 705October 19, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was using an older Garmin Mapping software with the Edge 705 GPS/HRM for my bicycle. I have logged over 2000 miles this summer. Using the old software the navigation was terrible. GPS was indicating me on the road, but the routing software would indicate that would have to travel back to the road that I was already on.
When I upgraded the mapping software, all the navigation issues were resolved. Even when I deviate from my basic route, by taking a side street or extending my ride, the software recalculates quickly and informs me how to get back on the route by the next intersection, a very nice feature. When I ride outside my standard riding area, I can preplan routes on City Navigator software, upload it to the Edge 705 and use it when I get there.
Garmin, as usual, develops and refines its products over time. I am extremely happy with this product and find it much more flexible than the chip based maps that are also available, just for the ability to plan a route and then upload it.
