What's Iguidance got better than Routis? - Page 2

HA! Same feeling here. Well, thanks for your help. You always have good info to add to posts. It looks like Iguidance is the way to go from what I have heard. I have Routis and I like the feel but Iguidance looks about the same but even more detailed and some better options. Besides, I think Routis is no longer going to be updated right? Then the obvious answer to this is Iguidance. Guess i need to get a copy now. anyone want to trade for a copy of Routis?

Also look into Destinator. But don't look if you enjoy names in the 3d views.

I'm running Routis but I got D3 because of all the hoopla over Ninja Monkey's frontend being so great. Well, the frontend may be great but D3 really sux. Like, why on earth would anyone want a GPS view with no street names (spoken with best Sam Kinison impersonation voice)?!?! When street names ARE displayed, they're only drawn horizontally or vertically which makes it hard to identify streets that go on diagonals. Also, even though one could argue that the graphics are more detailed and colorful, IMO they are much harder to read on a 7" screen.

Anxiously awaiting the new iGuidance...

I haven't tried any on a 7" screen because I don't have one

And yeh, I find no street names in d3 annoying
