Customer Review: Important if traveling to Canada.
This is an important piece of software if you travel to Canada and use a GPS to navigate. It shows most roads and has a lot of information. The only drawback is that you need to insert the disk everytime you want to open the program. Which means you need to carry it with you. And you can’t make a copy and leave the original at home because the copy will not open the program. But if you don’t mind taking the disk with you, it is very complete and a big help when traveling to Canada. It is also good for trip planning.
Customer Review: Must-Have software for your GPS
Without the topographical background maps, your GPS is nothing more than a point plotter on a blank canvas. The detail of these maps is phenomenal, with every small creek and lake showing up on the map, as well as manmade structures such as powerlines and gas pipelines. The topography is very accurate, and the maps are small in filesize considering the large amount of detail they contain, therefore they are easy to load and refresh quickly on the GPS. This software also includes pretty detailed streetmaps too, including not just major thoroughfares, but also small sidestreets and subdivisions.

Customer Review: OK, but doesn’t have a lot of features
I purchased this to be used with my PDA/Phone. I wanted the convenience of only carrying one unit. This serves that purpose. However, it does not have several features you will get in a regular GPS unit. The address gets you to the street, not the driveway like my old Garmin unit. You cannot add waypoints.
For the convenience, it works pretty good.
