PMMaps application supports USB GPS now!
You can use use eCS (OS/2 Warp) in the car
(searching the route) or when walking in the forest.  

General advantage of PMMaps/2 is the support of several sources.
You can switch view to other sources: Google maps, Yandex maps, Bing,
Navteq, OSM, Here (was Nokia), and many other (18 sources or more!)  

All data is cached. You can cache maps while sitting in internet cafe
and later find the way using cached data
