 A less expensive alternative to a GPS car unit., 2008-01-03
This product directed me perfectly to an area that I have not been to before. When I went off route, it recalculated the directions. When I drove too far, I got me back on track. It didn't lose signal between Bklyn, NY and Trenton, NJ (my destination). The directions are spoken clearly. The laptop was a little muffled by the car stereo, so I had to turn the music down a little to hear it. If you own a laptop, I would suggest looking into this instead of buying a more expensive car unit.

 Program ok, GPS receiver not, 2007-11-25
I owned S&T 2007 and enjoyed using it. I found some of the quirks of the maps a little funny/annoying, but it was still fairly accurate and usable for planning and for in car guidance. The 2008 version did have some map updates and some feature changes that were nice, but nothing major.
Cons:
- GPS receiver for 2008 didn't ever work. I used the one from my 2007 version. It may have been defective, I dunno
- Guidance does not speak the street names. It says when to turn and which way, but does not even attempt to pronounce street names.
- some instructions come way too late.

 good shipping, poor product..., 2007-11-21
great shipping.
But, GPS is not good... the voice instruction was confused, and direction by GPS was too late many times. my old navi on my car (2004) is much better.

Microsoft Maps, 2007-11-16
I own MS Streets & Trips 2004, 2006 and 2008 with GPS. As far as I can tell, and I have looked closely, there is no difference between the 2006 and 2008 versions. I have found, however, a number of streets on the 2004 version which were dropped from the 2006 and 2008 versions. The GPS unit works just fine with the 2004 version. Thank you again, Microsoft.

 Very Usefull, 2007-11-15
I have S&T 2005, I think it's a good product with accurate information so 2008 S&T should be better. I tried the new 2008 GPS with 2005 S&T, it works fine, even indoors using the GPS not the wifi locator! which is a surprise!
