Will this device work with Garmin Topo Maps on SD and used with the Basecamp Software?
There are 2 ways to use Garmin Topo Maps with Garmin Basecamp software. You can plug your handheld GPS into a USB port every time you want to use Basecamp, or you can have the SD card with the maps on plugged straight into the SD slot. My old MacBook Pro had an SD slot, so I just left a Garmin SD in that to save plugging in the GPS every time I wanted to look at the maps. My new Mac Mini has no SD slot and wondering if the lightening to SD reader is the equivalent of the old SD slot in the MacBook.
