Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not perfect, but still a great product
Only a couple of complaints. First, the documentation and help for this are horribly inadequate, causing a serious learning curve in order to figure out all the features. Be prepared for a lot of trial and error before you can quickly and easily navigate with this thing. You're on your own.

Second, the audio is VERY low. I have my laptop volume as far up as it can possibly go, and I still cannot understand the navigation voice over highway noise. And I drive a brand new car that is quite quiet. They definitely need to put a volume control on the program itself. I mean seriously, this is made to use in a car! What was MS thinking?

Third, the database of sites that can be displayed on the map is terribly inadequate. If you set it to display schools, you won't ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Software Okay - Hardware Pathetic
I've used Streets & Trips for several years now and have been pretty satisfied with the software itself. I decided to update to 2009 and get the GPS receiver with it this time. Being familiar with how a GOOD GPS works (I have both a Garmin auto and hand-held) I should have known better than to spend the extra money to get the Pharos receiver in the package. A wire coathanger could pick up satellites as good as this thing does.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - MS Streets
When using MS Streets with the GPS Doggle it allows 2D Map view rather than the 3D tunnel view that the Garmin/TomTom family of windshield GPS units offer. Have already found streets (that have been built for years) missing and 1 incorrect in a small area. There mapping company needs help. A co-worker with a TomTom that is a year older has the (missing) streets. Good program, but the data needs more updates sooner.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - What a POS
I bought MSft S&T2008 as my wife and I are retired and we travel extensively in our RV. I could have bought a Garmin, TomTom GPS etc but I didn't want to keep track of another piece of equipment. The first problem I had was the software. It would not load properly so I called Cust Service (India) and it took half an hour and I gave up. I waited a few days and called again and this time it loaded but it was unable to locate me -- the rep said that I must be in a location where the locator could not find a satellite. So I took it on the road. Unfortunately it couldn't locate me in WA, OR nor CA. The software showed me to be somewhere in Missouri. I didn't even try to call India again -- I just returned it. I hope you have better luck than I did.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - YOUR LATE
AMAZON WAS TWO DAYS LATE WITH DELIVERY. FOUND AT WALMART FOR SAME PRICE LESS SHIPPING. COULD HAVE HAD IT SAME DAY INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR LESS.
