psp-290 newbie question.

Sorry for these newbie question. I got 3.52 M33-2 with MapThis in the GAME350 folder, I got the London Map working and my GPS information saying that I lock up with two SAT. These are some of my question.

1) How do I lock on to myself on the map?

2) Can you type the Post Code to get the location? I know it has zip code.

3) Does it make the root to the loction I want by marking it?

you need to press square then you wait for satelites you need a fix before it can track you so either go outside some where that you can see the sky.

1) seeing 2 satellites on gps info screen - is not equal to locking on to them
2) you need to type it begining of a street address
(Example: 10 John st.) zipcode only searches are disabled since they yeild to many results..
you do need geodata for the area on the map.
Currently US only is available/usable)
3) no auto-routing yet - it will show the direct line/distance to your mark.. you can generate a route with, say,google and import it via gmdl

You should be able to use any Web based map service, Microsoft, Google etc..
Just try some and see what happens

Yeah, I've told this to some people already, they ask why they "Just get a straight line accross town".
Is auto routing implicated in the future 0.5?
