Product specifications

• Purchase maps.

Using the Map Loader permits the user to keep maps they are using separate from maps that they

own. This improves performance of the mapping software while providing flexibility for the

user. Maps that are not needed can be on a CompactFlash card, an SD card, or readily retrieved

from the Internet at any time. They are compressed to save storage space and to reduce

download time from the Internet. Loading a region to your Flash Disk area can generally be done

in less that 15 minutes from a Map Loader equipped CompactFlash card.

The WayPoint

unit’s source maps are freely available as a download from the Mobile Crossing

web site and from other media formats for about the cost of the media. However, to use the

maps you will need a Map Activation key. This key provides the license to use the maps. It is the

key that is actually purchased.

Map Loader Overview

The intent of the Map Loader program is to provide an easy to use method to purchase new

maps and manage those that you already own. Managing maps is a two step process.

1. Purchasing the Map Activation key.

2. Loading the maps onto your PDA.

The purchasing step can be done entirely via the Map Loader program if your PDA has an

Internet connection. If you do not have an Internet connection on your PDA you can use the

Map Loader in combination with our web site,

http://www.mobilecrossing.com, to purchase

maps. If you don’t have web access you can use the Map Loader in combination with a phone

call to purchase maps.
