Hello,
Many thanks for your interests in GPS Pilot software.
My name is Annie Chabert and I am responsible of GPS Pilot on-line
support. We are located in France, near Grenoble.
Because of GPS Pilot is an e-business dedicated to worldwide
customers, we have favorized the communication by email rather than
phone line. Indeed, anyone around the world can reach us via email 24
hours a day 7 days a week. We usually insured an answer within the
day.
If you have any questions about our software, feel free to contact us
at support@GPSpilot.com
For more info about our product I invite you to visit our site
http://GPSpilot.com and also our reviews section at
http://www.gpspilot.com/products/reviews/index.shtml
