Here is my user review of Navicore. It has only Skandinavian maps, but UK should come in March-April and other Central Europe soon after.

Thanks for that! Hope a Benelux version will come soon too!

A detailed account! We need more of this kind of evaluations which really help to make buying decisions.

BTW how do you grab those 9300 screen captures?

Thanks!

Screen capture works with key combination Shift+CTRL+CHR+S (with these small keys this is real pain in the **s to press all these same time...) it then brings you a box asking name and place to save a .BMP file. This is 376 kB in size but with any photo software you can save it as .gif to give you around 17 kB file without losing any detail.

You can find all these keyboard shortcuts in pdf in here
and also in Finnish

I've got great information from Navicore staff:

"During next month (March) we are going to unveil UK and few other countries. These will be unveiled at Cebit. Others should be out also before summer.
There will also be some new features when Europe maps are unveiled..."
