Base GPS .. will tell you the lat and long of where you are .. and nothing else.
then you add 'features' ... time of day , sun set, sun rise .., towns, cities, even roads
Waypoint/s is/are not part of a map. They can be entred manually (using the GPS buittons) or via a computer.
Points of Intrest (POI) may be part of a map, or seperate from a map .. but cannot be put into the gps using its buttoons ..
Fully featured GPSes have lots of things .. some gpses don't have 'roads' but do have towns/cities ..
Plaese read the guide over on ukgser .. saves retypeing it here?
------------------ Garmins world map should be viewable ... link speeds ? wait a while ?
