do tell, sounds awesome.
I bought it as a package (Emtac BT GPS/software/maps/SD card/mounting kit/chargers) from Brian at GPSOZ up in Mona Vale.
That cost me $979! Now that I am broke.
But yes its really awesome to use, even on a pocket pc. I'd guess it would be even better to have copilot installed on a carpc, but unfortunately, the one i bought is for PPC only, and you have to activate it on the single PPC.
There is another version/package that is for laptop/pc, Copilot live Laptop|7 i think its called, if you have your own usb GPS Receiver, all you need to buy is this software/map to install on your carpc (which is what I am planning to do when I get my carpc setup .. in N months time).
Thats for $600 i think, and you get all australian city/towns roads, voice guidance ( I guess you dont get this with mapsource), everything.
What is the best thing with this co-pilot software is, it not only give you voice directions, It actually tells you(well, in robotic UK accent) the name of the street, instead of just "turn right at 100m.." that most other software do.
As you live Melbourne, Theres a place in St Kilda that sells them even cheaper i think,
