Wanted to get your opinions of software based GPS software's (ie: Microsoft's Streets & Trips, Garmin's GPS18 bundle and likes) that have a small USB powered GPS receiver controlled by a NB for navigations and such.
How good are they? Worth the buy or will I be regretting it the minute I open the box? Essentially I am looking for something that can give me turn-by-turn info when traveling long distances, has up-to-date road info and can suggest lodging/food/etc.
With sooooo many GPS choices out there (either handheld, mounted or software based) it's hard to choose.....so those that have a unit or two, what would you recommend? I also would like to keep the price down as low as possible, so that is why the software versions seem feasible.
