Pinpoint 2010
PinPoint 2010 is currently under development and beta versions will start appearing here. PinPoint 2010 will have a completely overhauled User Interface and will support Microsoft MapPoint 2004 through 2010 and possibly other mapping options that are less expensive.
The software will be geared more towards emergency management in an ARES setting ('Amateur Radio Emergency Service'), but still serves the needs of the every day APRS user.
Keep your eye on this section to download beta versions when available.
