Re: [ST] new lister with license in jeopardy



I have to agree with George on this one- my Garmin Emap is dead accurate in
both my Maxima SE and on either bike, measured (on the bikes) against a
Sigma bike computer, with speed updates virtually every second at most.  The
Sigma and the Emap read identically, with virtually no lag on the GPS.  In
the car, the GPS also updates as a constant flow, and matches the speedo to
with 1- 2 MPH.
