Before marking your favorite locations as GPS "waypoints", make sure the receiver has a good "3D" navigation lock. For permanent marks, pick a name you'll remember. Temporary marks can usually be numbered automatically. To restart waypoint numbering, erase any numbered waypoints and save a new one called "001".
Lots of interesting articles from today's PC World. First up, Microsoft Takes on MapQuest: "MSN launches MapPoint online mapping service, offering maps, directions, and more."
Apparently this is going to be yet another component of MS' push for .Net services with hooks into other MSN services. MapPoint is XML-based, which makes it interesting in other ways, and there it launches with a phone-based direction service. The articles notes that this is another step towards location-based services. "For example, you might someday be able to click on a Windows Messenger buddy's name and retrieve a map showing the location of his or her home."
Good or bad? You make the call. I like parts of this, but I'm incredibly wary of .Net.
