Road map without GPS?

I've been looking for street maps/road atlas for ppc but can't find any, I want the same as the book maps you can buy in shops for £5, but for my ppc and not £££s. No GPS, no logging onto the Internet, just a map.
Does anyone know where I can buy or download?
Thanks in advance

you got MS pocket street (2001 : http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=125), the maps are on MS website
edit : url error

yeah i used pocket streets before i got proper GPS + tomtom

thanks,
downloading now...
only has town/cities far from me, i live in sw english countryside, so not much use. looks good though.

dont the pocketpc googlemaps show roads ?

yes, but according to the site data transfer is required. I'm in england on o2 which means £5/mb. I don't want to pay each time I want to view a map

Your best bet is TomTom or MioMap. You can use either of these as just the map without the GPS. TomTom even have some City maps.

the cheapest is £65 (and that one doesn't list compatibility with a wizard).
I was hoping for something for something similar in price to any map in a book shop, except be on disc/dl and be able to run on ppc

not bad for being totally free, very poor detail on the wide views and slow to move (hangs), but hopefully they'll update it,
thanks

Best GPS Software

Hey everyone
I am wondering what your opinions on the best mapping/route software for Windows Mobile is at the moment.
I am currently using TomTom and are after what you guys use?

I use Tomtom on the road, and Memory-Map off the road.

Memory-map interested me, is this for on foot or something?

Yeah, I use memory map for hiking. Its basicly just a OS map on your screen, and it shows your position. However it also records your track, so you can look back at any point and see where you were at any time, and how fast you were going.
Also the pc half is very good for planning trips in advance, as you just click to place waypoints which you can then follow using either your pda or you handheld gps like my garmin etrex.

Memory Map is very good for walking/ moutain biking, the maps can be costly though as you purchase them in large areas at a time, as an alternative consider "Quo" it isn't as feature filled but does provide OS mapping on tiles for £0,99 each it also will run on PC and PDA, see http://www.mapyx.com/ - Mike

Theft detection software with GPS

So far I've found three programs that will detect an authorized SIM card, send an SMS to a specified number, along with GPS coordinates. These are:
Mobile Justice
Ultimate Theft Alert
and W.I.M.P.
What would you guys recommend? I'll be getting the Touch Cruise soon, if that helps.
Thanks in advance.

Try remote tracker

Sprite Terminator?

What's the latest and greatest FREE app for theft recovery?
At this point I am looking for WinMo 6.5
I cannot seem to find WIMP (Where is my Phone) anymore with a current version?
http://www.mylookout.com looks cool.
If I wanted to pay, I would get the McAfee WaveSecure.
I like the idea of someone putting in their SIM card and SMSing their number etc to a friend of mine.
And turning on GPS itself to help track it.
THANKS!

TheftAware
For Android, TheftAware offers a comprehensive solution.
I believe that it meets all your requests, and on rooted devices, it can install itself into the system area, so it is not as easily detected and removed.
With this product, you do get what you pay for.
