Why the obsession with paper maps? For people who travel a lot to different cities, regions and countries GPS systems are a godsend. A map might be £9.99, but you've got to buy one for each city/area, you can't memorise everything, and it doesn't tell you about bad traffic, diversions, etc.
Are you similarly scathing about people who use computers to write letters? I mean, what's wrong with pen and paper? Or a quill and parchment for that matter?
