Topo USA/Earthmate PN-20 Map Exchange Overview DeLorme has pre-cut U.S. multi-state regions within the included Topo USA software. This allows you to update the world base map on the GPS with more detailed routable U.S. highway and major roads for your region(s) of interest. This design maximizes user-available, on-device internal memory for even more detailed topographic maps and imagery you cut from Topo USA of your precise areas of interest. The Eastern 1(A) multi-state region, as an example, requires 12 MB, with a total of 75 MB available on the device. These precut regions are located in the left window of the Handheld Exchange dialog, which is also where your map packages, waypoints, and tracks will be stored once created. (Note: you can store up to 2 GB of data on an SD card. The SD card slot is located within the battery compartment, beneath the batteries.)
The PN-20--Topo USA 8.0 System comes with:

Buyer BewareOctober 7, 2009 John C. Soniat(South Louisiana) 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
The seller of this unit did not clearly state that it was a refurbished piece. I will never again buy from this seller
Does everything I wanted it to do.September 18, 2009 Rich(Tucson, AZ USA) Purchased on 05/04/2009
I've had this unit now for several months. I needed something I could load topo maps in for off road motorcycle riding and hiking.
Pros:
- Usually links up and gets 3-D fix in about 20-30 seconds.
- Battery life seems pretty good with about five hours on a set of NiMh rechargeble AA's.
- User interface is laid out well. I can press buttons with gloves on.
- It does exactly what I needed to do, which is guide me over mountains on back roads.
- Mine came with Topo 7 software. Although 'clunkier' than using Google maps or MS Streets, it still does exactly what I needed. Makes it easy to map my route on the PC and then send it to the PN-20.
- Is definitely waterproof and shock resistant. Definitely.
Cons:
- Screen is a little small. Font size for text/menus is small. I need my glasses to read.
- Not the best for street mapping/routing on the fly (without the PC software). If your looking for a GPS unit to use mostly for street navigation, then keep on looking. This is not the droid you are looking for.
- does not play MP3s, WMAs, or other music files. Does not play videos. Will not take/make phone calls. Does not make my coffee in the morning. Does not shoot out laser-beams to destroy my enemys.
Overall if you want a tough little GPS that can guide you over back roads (mine is usually on a RAM mount on my off-road motorcycle) then this might be the ticket for you.
A Greate Value for the BuckSeptember 5, 2009 Joe Blow Consumer This device is 10x better than my old Magellan Explorist 200. More features, MUCH more intuitive than the 200, and really picks up the satellites well. They did nice job in creating a straight forward interface for the GPS. The fact that high quality topo and street maps are included makes this unit a great value for the dollar. I use it for geocaching, mark way points, and to track my mountain bike rides. If you like to geocache then you will love the fact that you can download cache coordinates directly to the GPS from the main geocache web site. I think you can only do this with Delorme and Garmin. I'm still playing with the mapping software on the PC. This software is not as intuitive as the GPS device. (Just say NO to Magellan--Just awful).
No compliants considering the price and how I use it.
Great Tool for a Great PriceAugust 20, 2009 D. Gonczy(Boy River, MN) I was in the market for a gps and was not sure what to buy, but after reading other reviews of the Earthmate PN-20, it seemed evident that it was the best buy. I have not been disappointed. Some have remarked that the screen draws are slow and that it takes some time to acquire a signal, but since this is my first gps, I haven't noticed. Works great for my application. I've been using it for scouting deer hunting areas. I check out the aerial photos for a likely spot, then by using the gps can walk right to it and see if it looks as good on the ground as it did from the air. It's great for marking the location of trail cams and tree stands. I'll never use plastic marking tape or "bright eyes" again. The only drawback is that if you have to power down in the woods, it is difficult for it to pick up a signal and get a fix, when you have a canopy of trees overhead. Seems to maintain a signal very well as you travel in the woods if you enter with a good 3-d fix. For the price there is nothing that compares, you don't need to purchase anything else and as some have said, with the downloadable aerial photos, it's like carrying Google earth in your hand. I highly recommend.
Excellent GPSAugust 19, 2009 Tracy Thomas(West Sacramento, CA USA) The DeLorme Earthmate PN-20 is an excellent little compact GPS unit. The Topo 7.0 software that came along with this unit is easy to use and is indispensible when planning a trip or marking property boundaries. I utilized the PN-20 to navigate a trip to Nevada, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico and found it to be invaluable as well as very dependable. I have also utilized this GPS out in the field to find and mark property boundaries as well as to mark points of interest on the fly which were later transferred with ease to my computer and the Topo 7.0 software. I would highly recommend this unit to anyone considering the purchase of a reasonably priced GPS with many great features.
