Thanks for all the info. I had never heard of hub until I started playing with Basecamp. I wasn't using it, because I like each leg of my trip to be a separate route. Basecamp definitely has a learning curve, I was an avid Mapsource and Delorme user. Neither of these softwares are really supported anymore, especially on a MAC. I have always preferred to use the laptop to route my trips and then transfer to the Nuvi. Since the advancement of the smart phone and internet on the go, us R travelers have been left in the dust.

I have to say we started traveling with paper maps, but since I have gotten used to a navigation tool, I will never be without, as imperfect as they are.
