I have the 2006 and thought I would get this to upgrade...well it is a lot more difficult to use...can't figure out why they just didn't add the road changes to the old format...

- Used to be good but those days are over
I have been a user of Delorme for over 6 years. Problems are not only with the program but also with their customer service. Here's the gist:

The program may give you points of entry onto a road when there is no need for them (i.e. it tells you to get off the highway to get back on by going in a loop and returning to the highway).

The program takes an eternity to start.
It may provide you routes that don't exist.
Roads are outdated and/or identified incorrectly even if you upgrade every year.
The voice feature works 60 to 70% of the time. You can barely hear the driving instruction(you will need to close the windows and tell everyone in the car to shut up).
The option for speaking to the program doesn't work well at all (I have never been able to get it working properly).

Be extremely careful with their Bluetooth GPSs.

I purchased the blue logger and it has been vacationing in a case for 2 years now. The darn thing works when it wants (just like some of my employees) and when it does it losses signal. Tried to contact customer service and got response 3 days latter (though they did call me). I was instructed to remove the battery of the gps in order for it to reset itself. I did and what do you think happened? NADA!!

And last but not least, The PDA option is a joke. It will take forever to upload the map to the PDA and it is EXTREMELY difficult to use. Don't even think about trying to use the PDA for entering address location for driving directions. It is just not worth the frustration.

In true honesty, the only reason I keep buying the product, the software, is due to the price and my line of work. JUST DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT buy any of their accessories (GPS). Go with more reliable companies. I have never and will never purchase any hardware from them again.

- Very Disappointing
I travel for business frequently. The phone book listings have proven to be at least 3 years old. Most of the maps are good, but there are a few that need updating. I can use Yahoo! maps online and they have more updated information. I continually check for updates to make sure I have the latest info. The GPS has problems. On more than one occasion, the GPS has indicated my current position more than 1/2 mile away from where I actually was. This was during a time when it had "good fix." Also the auto-routing can sometimes be very pushy. In one instance, the route idicate4d that I should get on a toll road that ran parallel to the road I was on and wanted to be on. The auto route tried over ten times to re-route me to the "correct" route

- Very Poor Routing System
I upgraded from 2003 Street Atlas. The new one has even poorer routing.
If I go from Page, AZ to Ann Arbor, MI. This new version routes me on a 4 wheel drive road (for over 50 miles) even though I have Freeway preferences set. There is no way to exclude Canada. Re-entry to the U.S. is so difficult, (soon to require a passport), the speed limits are 62 MPH max in Canada, and the fuel, especially Premium, is unbelievably expensive and I do not want to go there when I am trying to go to Vermont. There should be a way to exclude and include certain roads and countries. No routing (except shortest possible) should include dirt roads. I am 64 and went on an 8400 mile trip last summer. It was difficult to force this program to route me where I wanted to go. I use the GPS option with it and the GPS works most of the time, except it SNAPS back when trying to look ahead or at alternative routes while driving, very annoying.

I like it. It is simple to use if you have had the previous years, 2005.2006. Once I set it up it has proven to be very accurate. I just came back from Utah and it worked fantastic finding restaurants and places of interest. I wished it had true 3-D. But other then that I give it high marks in all areas of use. If you are a new user, read the manual and practice using the features first.
