I'm looking for mapping software, something that will fit on a laptop, that will store ~350 points.

The purpose is to store retail stores for the purpose of creating a route for distribution/sales calls.

Budget is limited.

Thanks in advance...

The hand held Garmin has the Naviteq computer interface that will likely meet your needs. I don't know if the Naviteq interface is available separately from the GPS device. I believe that the e-Trex retails in the $250 range.

I would avoid Streets and Maps as I found it to be less than correct.

Have you considered Google Earth for this task?

I'll check those two out.

I actually found a trial copy of Microsoft MapPoint laying around, but I'm having issues with it.

At one point I had 18 months worth of deliveries bulleted. Worked great with a cheap GPS unit.
