- Unreliable, sporadically useless
The system works well - until you try to use it. I've had it suddenly stop recognising its GPS receiver almost every time I need it in earnest. And when it DOES see the receiver, the program crashes 200 metres down the highway - infuriating!

- Brillant
Very good software and piece of hardware. It is basically plug and play. Signal is very easy and quick to get, I used it in my car and on the Eurostar. I can't compare it to a sat nav because I use it on my laptop but it fufills the same function. You can save and print your journey, it makes my trips go faster now! Just fun!

- Not comparable with Satnav. A waste of money.
This program was very disappointing. I bought it with high hopes that it would obviate the need for a Satnav unit. Sadly, I feel my money was wasted. The following comments are necessary:

1. The route planner itself worked reasonably well, but no better than the several free route planners available on the Internet.

2. The GPS Unit worked - it was probably not made by Microsoft. It accurately placed the unit on the map.

3. The most damning feature was the fact that when ... Read More
