Customer Reviews:
Extremely Outdated, 2008-05-12 I have a GPS in my car, and Microsoft Streets and Trips 2005. I saw this product today at Office Depot, and it looked like it might be easier to use to import data points, so I thought that I'd give it a try. It was the newest version in the store. It was more than twice as expensive as the new version of Microsoft Streets and Trips.
I was searching for about 20 points this evening for a business presentation. Almost none of them were found by this software. The maps are very outdated. In fact, Microsoft S&T 2005 was much more up to date. The DeLorme product had missing addresses for major buildings that had been in place since 2002. Fully one half of one city (Frisco, Texas) was missing (including it's professional soccer team and stadium) that has a population today of 100,000.
Buy an outdated used copy of Microsoft Streets and Trips. Better functionality, newer maps, and probably almost free these days.
