For whatever reason ive seen a whole lot of GPS units on ebay bundled with Microsoft's Streets and Trips

I strongly suggest NOT using this for everyday navigation issues. Like stated in the write up its great for planning trips but for in car navigation i had a LOT of trouble. Its akward to use and does not give nice GPS information let alone useful on the go directions.

Also it had a lot of trouble finding my GPS unit. I had to use a third party driver and it would still fail somtimes anyway. (maybe its just the holux unit i have...im still looking for better software tho)

Just thought id put my 2 cents in...
