Strengths: The GPS unit works well.

Weaknesses: Acceptable map quality

Summary: I upgraded from MS Street and Trip 2006. I don't see much improvement from the 2006 version. I still see zigzag ramps (which should be curves) if I zoom in. I don't use the new live search button because I usually use it in a car without internet.

Strengths: GPS included, easy to use. Great Maps.

Weaknesses: As with many other mapping software, sometimes the directions can be wrong or misleading.

Summary: Great Product. I have been using since version 1997. Always buy the updates every year. General features that I like is the ability to get real-time turn by turn directions and ability to re-route when you get off the selected route. Has good information on hotels and places to eat
