Microsoft Streets & Trips 2009 out in October, but MS AutoRoute R.I.P.


Microsoft Streets and Trips 2009 will come to a store near you in October. It will include voice direction prompts that will pronounce street names. User interface will be slightly improved, plus a few more enhancements and fixes.

Unfortunately the European MS AutoRoute is no more . R.I.P.

At the first glance the picture above may look just like all the previous versions. But upon closer examination you may notice the size of buttons doubled (more friendly for in-car navigation). S&T Team, at their blog, posted a nice comparison screenshot of the toolbar S&T 09 vs. S&T 08. Here's the link: http://streetsandtrips.spaces.live.c...D203!509.entry

A few MSFT guys working on S&T 09 shared today some of their insight on page 1 and 2 at http://www.laptopgpsworld.com/micros...eet-names.html

Several important issues have been addressed.

Microsoft Streets & Trips 2009 is not in stores yet, but Microsoft MapPoint 2009 is now out! S&T is a subset of MP features, so looking at MP 2009 is just like looking at S&T 2009. Here's a brief Review: MapPoint 2009 (or call it just "first impressions")

Edit: Streets and Trips 2009 - review and free fully-functional 60-day trial download
