GPS for my Mac
When we travel, I rely on my basic, Garmin GPS for turn by turn directions.
However, I've always found that these units, at least the low cost ones like mine, don't do a good job of giving you a big view. When you zoom out to see an entire state, it just doesn't work well.
You're driving down the x-way, and it says turn left at exit 4B, and you think WHAT??!?!...where is this demonic device sending me? You might discover later that it took you on an alternate route that worked, but may not have been your first choice.
I can view a nice map on my Android tablet, and it shows where I am on the map, and I can effortlessly zoom in and out to show a single x-way intersection, or zoom out to see the entire city, state, or more. It's just a nicer way to get a good global sense of where you are.
BUT...my Android program needs WIFI, and I want a program that I can use on my MAC book, without the WIFI, that has detailed maps and is GPS enabled. Does anyone know a good program for that?
