Just use the US software, and turn your monitor upside down.

IGuidance2 on regular LCD (non VGA) screen?
Hi everyone....wonder if the IGuidance 2 is usable (visibility wise) on a regular LCD (non VGA) screen. I have Copilot 7 live and it's unusable in my regular LCD screen. All the buttons and letters are just way too small. Thanks in advance.

Well, I just ordered mines. Should be here either friday or next week.
If I like it, I may be selling my Destinator 2.
If I don't like it, I may be selling my iguidance 2.

I notice a difference between IGuidance2.0 and Routis 2004. IGuidance has more features it seems and the maps show more detail ie. terrain and lakes from what I see. There seems to be more features in the POI department too. As for the voice guidance Routis does say it detail on what do. It says the names of the freeway ie 5south, 805north but does not say street names .. it only says to turn right in 500feet and so forth. I wonder what the voice sounds like on IGuidance .. is it a female?

Unfortunately no. There are are lot of us here looking for a good solution. You might want to contact Kurgy. I think he is looking at organising a group buy for some Australian based software.

Thanks.. WhiteRabbit. No, I don't have routis. I guess if routis is the best so far for Non-VGA screen, then IGuidence should be the same? Thanks.
