Sorry, no services for me. I wouldn't have been able to put up with the structure.

I am also not particularly hirsute. Shaving probably would have been an every other day thing.

Oh my, no! Just iPod and all of its assorted cables, headphones, adapters, etc. And my 5.1 Klipsch and it's cables and sound cards.
I DID play the flute in the 8th grade. That lasted about 6 mos.
I always did want to be a R n R drummer though!

Oh and BTW, never had a beard!

Karen, Ken, Terry...

I too ran into the problem of the newer maps not working with nRoute. Until I found this thread I thought I just had to live with it. But after reading this thread and others on this site, I discovered the MapReverseConverter application and I was able to successfully execute it against City Navigator Europe NT 2010.1. Unfortunately I discovered this reverse converter a little late because my trip to Germany was back in September. At the time I simply assumed that CNEuroNT would work with nRoute just as CNNA2009 did. I was shocked to discover it was incompatible with nRoute. Not to mention, the timing of this discovery was extremely inconvenient.

From time to time I do some cross country driving. Like everyone else, I like the fact that nRoute allows me to use the big screen on my laptop when taking these longer trips. And I find the screen on my Rino530 to be good enough when traveling around town. I particularly like using both when Geocaching. I understand that Garmin has to watch the bottom line but I was annoyed when their replacement product for nRoute was being treated as a GPSR unit itself. I did not appreciate that I would need to buy two unlock codes for the same map so I could use it with both MobilePC and my Rino530.

Thanks to all of you, I now have a work around.

Thank you very much.

Chris

Re: nRoute and CNNT 2010

I do have a question. Why do we need to uninstall the original map after running the MapReverseConverter against it?

You don't but it is just wasting space. The newer MapSource versions work fine with the converted files. You just can't be sure which file MapSource is using unless you, at least, rename the gmap folder. As you are dealing with a locked map, I would keep a copy of the gmap folder somewhere convenient like on a DVD.
