PrettyMap 5.2 and PrettyEarth 5.2 have been released. Version 5.2 includes a large number of improvements, with the following major changes:

Managing user maps has been rewritten and it is much faster
Modified GUI that handles user maps
A new export file format, GPX, is available
It is much easier to move user points to their desired locations, or remove them (using context menu items)
Support for synchronization of user maps against a remote SQL database with OpenGIS/PostGIS extensions, and visualization on a web page is available upon request

Does this one have a "MyLocation" like the Google maps is SUPPOSED to, or do you have to manually type in an address to get directions somewhere? I use my palm when I get lost playing on side roads on my motorcycle, and sometimes its almost impossible to get an address of my current location for directions home. Thats why I have been looking for something like this, or for google maps to work 100%...

Sounds like what you need is a TomTom Rider

Yup, PrettyMap is mainly for use with offline maps (e.g. you can make a snapshot of the map of your area and then see where you are using GPS). It does not (yet?) interact with gmaps online.
