GARMIN 152 SOFTWARE

[alisdair4]

I am sure this must have come up before - but a search of the forum reveals no answers. I've just installed a GPS 152 to Drifter. I don't really want to rely on a permanently attached laptop/chartplotter. But I would like to set my waypoints on my laptop and then export them to the GPS. I previously had a Magellan, and they had a product called (I think) Datasend which allowed you to manipulate the contents of the GPS via a PC. Does anyone know if GArmin do a similar product? Thanks.

They use to sell this Mapsource
but it seems to have been discontinued.
There is nothing in the manual other than reference to Mapsource.

I use GPS Utility : http://www.gpsu.co.uk/
It interfaces with my Garmin 152 ok.
