Can't view the maps
I originally purchased Streets and Trips 2008, hoping for pocket pc availability, but there was none. So I purchased Microsoft Pocket Streets 2005, thinking I could use it as a base from which to download newer maps. However, on downloading to my Dell Axim 30, a message appeared that because the software was created for an older version of Windows Mobile it may not display correctly. Understatement! I can't view any maps, which makes this product of no value for my purposes. I was not aware of a Windows version requirement from the product info provided! |  | Reviewed on 2007-11-15
pretty ok
I think it is better to by the Streets & Trips 2005 because you get a gps device and when you install the software you get pocket streets too so thats more worth it. I think the product is pretty good due to the fact that i use it on my smart phone, its like a map in the palm of my hand. Now my smartphone is my phone, mp3 player, digital camera, oraganizer, hand held map. Also the good thing about streets & trips is that you can save any map to your smartphone from your pc using the software, you are not just limited to the major metro cities on microsoft's dowload site. just make sure you have a large storage card and you can pretty much save a whole state map, just save a new state map whenever you are going to go out of state. i like it because i dont have to subscribe to a data plan or internet service with my phone provider to use the maps. I you do then this is not that good, might as well do mapquest or something but if you don't pay extra for a data plan, this software is perfect. | | Reviewed on 2007-09-21
The best for Downtown
I have had this product for a while, and it helps me in the downtown, its not much usefull for driving directions. But when you visit a bigcity for the firsttime and planing on walking a bit, and finding the place on ur self then this would help you a lot. | | Reviewed on 2007-08-13
Pocket Streets great help to Fire/EMS personnel!
We use Microsoft Pocket Streets 2005 in our duties as fire & EMS workers.
Although we know our districts pretty well, due to recent growth and expansion resulting in more and more streets to keep up with, it's nice to have Pocket Streets on our pocket PC's so we can quickly look up an address. Pocket Streets works great on my Ipaq. | | Reviewed on 2007-01-10
DON'T BUY! WASTE OF MONEY!
This is a complete joke. The only cities that are in the program for U.S. states are major metro areas. If you have a handheld (either regular or mobile phone) you more than likely also have WiFi or GPRS internet connection. And if you are in a major metro area, with a WiFi connection, why would you need a program for maps? Just go to Yahoo Maps or Mapquest. If you don't have a WiFi, then just buy a paper map...it will do the same thing (maybe even more!) than this program.
The only possible way this program could be useful is if you already have a handheld GPS receiver AND you never find yourself outside major metropolitan cities. I have a GPS receiver for my laptop (USB) which I though could connect to my handheld and it won't...so my advice is to buy an entire package (software and handheld-specific GPS receiver).
Can't believe Microsoft put its name on this junk. | |
