I'm trying a few things on my current road trip through the States. I've got an S2 with a clapped out battery in an ultimate add-ons case mounted to a WRR. I'm riding everything but single trail. But plenty of corrugated and rock strewn gravel trail.
I'm trying backcountry navigator with .map files, "here"maps and osm+. On the underpowered S2 osm+ is the clear winner. It's nut that simple to get the offline maps to show. Still don't know how I did that. But you can configure it as much a you want.
Problems for me are the case and the processing and electric power. Although with the clapped or battery it's tough to say, but I think it needs 2 amp. The power, also ultimate add-ons, didn't make a good connection so our runs out of juice. The S2 isn't powerful enough to run backcountry navigator with the pre loaded maps. Which sucks because the other apps don't import GPX files. [Edit: OSM does. Just select the GPX file in a file browser and open it in OSM] Then the case. It's not waterproof as I found out today.
So a few things to improve on. But overall I love the large screen, great detail, free maps and great graphics.
