Peter, that's right, it's officially Flitestar now, though in fact Flitestar and Flitemap had always been one and the same software anyway, with the right customer code activating the extra functionality and changing the name on the splash screen to "Flitemap".
Unfortunately, I haven't bought these TPCs/ONCs yet, so can't verify whether they are really loadable, but if you do, would you try them in FS and let us all know?

Jeppview prices are in fact somewhat lower - e.g. SkywaysDirect quotes £1350 for an annual subscription to Jeppview IFR or £314 for VFR (for all of Europe). For VFR-only flying that would be cheaper than an equivalent set of paper maps. For IFR, it's a bit steep, but there's always P2P ;-)

Add a Xerox solid ink colour printer for a complete solution...
