Product generally works as advertised though it is disappointing that weather updates are no longer available.

It works and is much less expensive than a handheld. Using it on a netbook with extended battery life makes it a very useful tool.

I have used my PC for active routing with another company for a number of years. This looked like a nice upgrade from a good name in the business. Not so. The gps is probably fine, but the mapping program is limited in use and very basic. Not a good product in my estimation.

A great product. I use it on a 10 inch laptop and the only thing wrong is the size of the vehicle icon. I use the motorbike icon as it is the smallest but it is still too big. Does not have a bulk delete of waypoints, so you have to delete them five or six at a time. Everything else is great. Just like a gps but you have the use of the computer as well.

This product is the perfect solution for a budget. You already have a laptop and would like a GPS but don’t want to spend a fortune. . . this is the one for you. The ease of use is outstanding. A laptop provides a great view, no small GPS screen. The only drawback some might experience is finding a place for the setup to sit in your vehicle. Overcome that and you will be completely satisfied. Happy trails!
