Manufacturer Description |
Turn your laptop PC into a powerful GPS navigator with the latest in the Delorme Earthmate range. The Delorme LT-20 is a high-quality GPS, featuring the latest in high-sensitivity chip technologies.
Included with the Delorme Earthmate LT-20 Package is the Delorme Street Atlas USA 2006 software with voice commands and other functionality designed specifically for in-vehicle GPS tracking.
Now you'll never get lost again with this affordable way to experience GPS without requiring a built-in GPS system. The low-power GPS can be powered for hours by your laptop PC's USB port. Ideal for everyone who travels frequently, this device will pay itself back quickly in gas savings alone, not to mention all the time typically lost driving in circles around unknown places across the U.S.
Getting Started
Plug the Earthmate GPS LT-20 into the USB port of your laptop PC. The low-power chipset draws power from your laptop, meaning no GPS batteries are needed. Install the Street Atlas USA 2006 software (included), choosing to load the entire second data disc onto your hard drive if you want. The software also includes over 4 million places of interest. Place the GPS as close to your front windshield as possible, ideally using the enclosed suction cup on the attached cable to hold the GPS against the glass. Click on the software GPS tab and you’ll see your position updated in real time on the maps as you drive. There are many custom GPS options included within the GPS tab.
DeLorme Street Atlas USA with Earthmate GPS Preferred by the Washington Post over Microsoft Streets and Trips 2005 with GPS
''DeLorme put some thought into making Street Atlas USA 2006 easy to use in motion. You can set the program to display one trip segment at a time, using large, high-contrast type and graphics. It can also call out each turn in a synthesized voice and responds to basic spoken commands, such as ''next turn'' or ''be quiet.'' Which to choose? Once you're rolling, Street Atlas USA works better. Microsoft's directions come in the form of too-small text, coupled with detailed maps that will be hard for a co-pilot to read -- assuming he or she doesn't get carsick from the effort.''
– Washington Post (Sept. 5, 2004)
For safety purposes, bring a passenger along to serve as GPS operator while you are driving or piloting any vehicle.

THE GPS LT-20 UNIT
This new unit is one of the smallest on the market, measuring just 1 7/8” w x 2 5/8” h x 9/16” thick. It comes with an attached 5’ cable with a suction cup on the cable designed to hold the GPS against the windshield or on the dash for optimum performance. Just plug the other end of the cable into the USB port of your laptop PC. It is best to avoid rapid and far-ranging temperature extremes, bringing the GPS indoors when not in use, just as you would a cell phone. The yellow reflective casing helps reduce high temperatures while on the dash.
