Thanx for the infos guys.

I have been looking for a really good atlas for the iPad... and have found... none
And it ain't for the lack of trying, installed I have: World Atlas, iAtlas, The WorldHD, National Geographic Map, AtlasHD, NG World and directU Europe.

None of them gives me the precision I'm looking for whilst offline, most are more centered around country facts or filing the iPad's precious memory with nice pictures. Also I sure can do without musical intro

Of those, I would rate the directU and The WorldHD as the better ones.
The first one is free, there are several continents that can be downloaded. The drawings are detailed to street level, but lacking some features such as smaller lakes names etc.
The second one has very nice interface and clear maps, but lacks the required detailing.

As a pilot, I am impatiently awaiting the release of The Pilot's Free Atlas
