| Hi.
I'd like to know the differences between :
- city select
- city navigator
- waypoint manager
- metroguide
- ...
because it's a bit confusing...
thank you !

| City Navigator:
Full-featured road navigation map. Today intended for all Garmin's
autorouting capable navigators, from the StreetPilot 7500 to the Legend
C.
City Select:
Subset of the City Navigator maps. Primarily intended for small car
navigators, with small map memories, like the GPS V. This map product
is discontinued.
Metroguide:
Aimed at mapping receivers without autorouting capability, like the
eTrex Vista. Does not provide autorouting in the GPS unit itself (with
some exceptions).
Waypoint manager:
Is exactly that. Handles waypoints for units which can't show any road
map at all, and where the full Mapsource map handling software and maps
cost more than it gives.
