MapPoint 2010 on a Flash Drive
November 4th, 2009 · Uncategorized
We now have MapPoint 2010 available on a Flash drive for customers who do not have a DVD drive or access to one. Typically if a customer does not have a DVD drive and needs to install MapPoint 2010, I will tell them to go to a computer with a DVD and either copy the DVD contents to a shared network drive or to a 2GB+ USB Flash drive and usually this works, but I anticipate there will be people who would prefer to just receive it on a Flash drive in the mail from us so they don’t have to go through the hassle of tracking down another computer with a DVD drive, etc. Typically we will request $10 ($5 for the USB Flash drive and $5 for USPS Priority shipping) to send this to a customer. If you haven’t ordered yet and know you would like this, just contact us at website@mp2kmag.com to let us know of your special request.

MapPoint 2010 on Slashgeo
September 16th, 2009 · Uncategorized
The announcement of MapPoint 2010 was mentioned on Slashgeo a couple days ago…
“New features include map settings to choose display details, expanded pushpins, and the ability to send routes to your GPS device. This release is fairly significant, so as I normally do, I figured it would be wise to step through some of the new features for you”

MapPoint 2010 Features
August 17th, 2009 · Uncategorized
According to early descriptions…
- Create maps using custom Map Settings to display your data with only the details you want to appear. Easily turn labels on or off, change font style or map style.
- Dramatically improve decision-making by bringing clarity to tabular data.
- Use information-rich maps to illuminate important data relationships, identify business trends, and illustrate opportunities.
- Create sales territories and share performance maps to clearly visualize, analyze, and communicate business information.
- Combine business data with included demographics to target potential customers and focus decisions.
The usual stuff except did you catch that — “… only the details you want to appear. Easily turn labels on or off… ” !?!?
If that means what I think it does, that’s going to be a very welcome feature!

August 13th, 2009 · Uncategorized
Still no news about MapPoint 2010 since Chris Pendleton mentioned it in a blog post a couple weeks ago… Normally it would show up on online retail sites about three or four months (or at least two months) before it was to be shipping.
