Surreal,
For the email address, just go to their website and in the contact options they have an option for TTTB (talk to the boss) it is an email that goes directly to him. Or if you would like just PM me your email address and I will pass it forward, although I dont think it would make a difference, because I do not know him personally, just a CEO willing to help. I am not sure if they love getting emails directly to them, but then again they wouldnt offer it on their website if it was not an option. As I read the email again I dont believe it is a "military discount" it was more

**:While there isn't much margin left in the new lower price GPS systems, we'll be happy to work with you to sweeten the deal in any way we can.
Thanks for selecting Anywhere Map and thank for your service. Please call me directly upon your return and we'll see what we can do."**

Those were the words of the email. It is a large bonus for me that a company is willing to work direct with its potential customers like that, it is a nice change from talking to a customer service representative (read: $7.00/hr person who answers the phones and reads out of a company manual)

As for being able to transfer it in and out of airplanes it is effortless. All it is, is a PDA with a wireless bluetooth GPS and a ciggarette power adapter and clamp style yoke mount. So when you leave the airplane you unplug the ciggarette power adapter, unclamp the yoke mount with PDA attached and grab the GPS reciever off of the dashboard. I usually fly with a few things and a bag, so unplugging a power adapter and unclamping a yoke mount is a non issue for me.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
