2.7 of 5 Good directions, bad set up! 4/7/2006
from New York, NY  
Positive: Detailed maps, -Very good directions, -Large buttons, so you can use a fingers to enter info, instead of stylus. -If you missed a turn it will redirect you to correct route momentarely. You may not even notice that. Negative: -If you search by address make sure you know a ZIP code, without that you may and up in completely different place. -It is hard to find a destination in this software. -Map files for all the USA take more than 3GB, not every PDA support 4GB SD card. - To map direction From one state to another also not easy if you have to travel great distances. You need to find on which map located your destination, and all the needed maps in between to be opened. It's hard if you are not realy familiar with the area.
