Which GPS models have aerial images? A lot of the areas I run on my Garmin with BlueCharts says I'm going over land when really I am not ![]() |

Delorme has one that you can download aerial images to. It also lets you layer the maps. I've not used one, but they look pretty cool. |

I have the delorme, best handheld I've ever owned. Nothing cooler than seeing a satellite image of where you are. |

I have the Garmin 78c. You can put map images on it too but I don't much cause there are no decent images of where I go anyway. It is waterproof and floats etc. I have never used a GPS that was not a garmin (except for a sony pixis that nobody has heard of! ![]() |
