 Its a good start, but...... September 21, 2007
Richard W. Brice (Atlanta, GA)
Its a good start, but its not Garmin. I bought this for a Dell X30 with a GPS Module, but I sold the Dell and the software and bought a Garmin IQue M3 and a SD card for Italy and Greece. Wow! What a vacation..... Could Not have done it without the Garmin.
 Trip to Italy January 12, 2007

I do not think I could have enjoyed my trip to italy without the maps and gps. we ere we were at all times. It works better with the later version gps receiver. even on the smallest trails it tracked very true.

Great Program! November 10, 2006
L. Carter (Idaho, USA)
I used the program on a driving trip of Europe and it was accurate and easy to use. The vocal instructions were timely and accurate even in a crowded city. All the hotels and sites were listed in the data base. I saved great amounts of time by having accurate guidance. Worth every penny.
