[OSM-Talk-ZA] OSM as Garmin Basemap on new outdoor devices?

[Grant Slater]

Talk-ZA,

I recently heard a rumour that Garmin South Africa has since April
2013 begun bundling an OpenStreetMap "basemap" with all their outdoor
devices.

The bundled OSM basemap is claimed to cover all of Africa, unroutable,
topographic styled (with contours) and supplied on an sdcard.

Is anyone able to confirm? Or has anymore details?

If true, it is fantastic news and should bring us more mappers. :-)

Regards
 Grant
