Routis Street Funkiness?!?

I recently re-activated my car PC - the whole project was on hold for several months. Anyway, I got it installed and was testing out Routis. I noticed some funkiness when finding addresses in Routis.

For instance: if I set the destination to 1245 Glenwood Dr. Sharon, PA. I enter the city first, then the street name and it doesn't find the street name! After scrolling down thru the list of street names, I find that Glenwood is actually there, but lower in the list than the first set of "G"s. Then it hits me - the damn list isn't sorted into alphabetical order! It's sorted in groups, but there are several groups listed in order.

OK, that's confusing. For example, the street list might go like this:
Adams
Baker
Main
Short
Train
Allen
Foster
Hughes
State
Brookview
James
Lakeview
Vermont

The alphabetizing is all screwed up, but grouped. Anyway, I noticed this for other PA addresses, like 25 Covert St. Sharpsville, PA

Since I live in PA, but work in OH, I tried several Ohio addresses and they're all fine.

Has anyone else noticed problems like this? I emailed Deluo, but since they discontinued Routis, I doubt I'll get an answer.

Thanks,
Tom

<BUMP>

Aw come on! At least someone try putting those addresses into Routis and see if it works for them.

Thanks,

Tom, when I enter the street address first, I have no problem locating that exact address. However, I am finding the same thing you are when I enter the city first. It appears that once the city is entered first, then the streets are sorted by size (in number of characters)...

Bummer. I was hoping it was only my install.

I got a reply from Deluo on the subject. They basically said the product was discontinued. So no patches or updates. Oh well. I guess I will just have to enter them street first.

Thanks DistiGuy
