Alternative to Memory Map?

Has anyone used this? Might be an alternative to MM?

I'm looking to use one of these tools. I downloaded Mapyx (Quo) the other day, but haven't been too impressed so far. I can't get any of maps to install properly, and there's lots of pop up windows which are a bit annoying. Memory Map's interface is a bit cleaner to look at in my opinion, and I can actually get it to work too, which is a bonus.

I want something that is nice and easy to use on my netbook when out and about.

You're right though, Mapyx looks cheaper, but I'm not sure it actually is... I don't fully understand what they're trying to charge and when just yet.

Well I was looking at it earlier, looks like the program is free. and then you buy the maps on top of that. the Explorer OS maps are something like £1.89 for 10km x 10km

I've just bought a Nokia x6 and a mate that does mobile testing recommended this program:

Only had a quick look at the website so far, no idea what it's like but looks OK

Viewranger is a superb bit of kit for syban phones. I have it as a free sponsor from an event that I organised for Exeter uni where we did a non stop relay around Cornwall. It was very good and worked faultlessly on three phones for the 30 hours non stop which is not something I would trust a windows enable phone and MM to do.
