Figure 8: Input your data as with your cell phone

Although it supports the usual input methods, OnCourse Navigator provides a handy alternate. Figure 8 shows the multitap keypad. If you've ever input text with a cell phone, this should be familiar. Tap the ABC key once for A, twice for B, etc. An advantage of this method is that the large keys allow input without a stylus.


Figure 9: Creating an itinerary

Not all navigation programs support multiple destinations in an itinerary, but OnCourse Navigator does a particularly good job. From the screen shown in Figure 9, tap on the "+" button and then use any of the methods shown above to select a destination. After doing so, return to this screen and select your next destination.


Figure 10: Itinerary complete

When you're done inputting your destinations, tap on the "Calculate Route" button and OnCourse Navigator returns the total distance and time. If you're satisfied, tap on "Start navigation" and you're on your way. If you're "pre-planning", you can save the itinerary and pull it up when you're ready to leave.
