Best GPS Software / GPS Receiver

I'm looking for the best GPS software that could be voice controlled and the best GPS receiver so that I almost never lose my signal etc. etc. Which one do you guys recommend?

I'm looking for the best hamburger. What do you recommend?

Asking for the best anything is going to get you personal opinions. You nee to research features, usability, etc. to find the product that meets your needs.

That said, the BU-353 is a great receiver. I have one, as do many others on this forum. It's small, accurate and locks quickly.

And nearly any software can be voice controlled. It just depends on how much work you want to do to make it work properly.

Well a good hamburger is the Double Quarter Pounder with cheese at McDonald's ....well I'll spend as much time as needed in order to get what I want. But name me some good GPS softwares so that I can check them out like you did with the receiver.

I don't want a good hamburger. I want the best hamburger. Are you saying the 2QP is the best?

And I can see my point drowned in the sea of sarcasm. Let me try again....

You need to find the product that suits you the best. Nobody's opinion about what is best is going to help you to be able to make that decision. It's far more useful to ask questions about features, compatibility, customization, etc. that would affect you and your planned project.
That's far more useful information when considering a purchase than what some random people think is the best.

If you want to learn about GPS software, look in the FAQ Emporium or search the GPS subforum.

iGuidance is one that I use. I don't have any problems with it. It's widely modded by members here and there are a ton of hacks that make it even better for the carputer.

Ah, . . . Can somebody translate "Double Quarter Pounder" in European McD's language? I don't think they call them that way over here.

@ topic: well, sorry, I'm looking for one too.

That's right. Y'all use the metric system. You don't know what the **** a quarter pound is. I think you'd call it a Double Royale with cheese.

Nah, you all are wrong! The best burger is the Double-Double @ In-N-Out!

Peace,

Well our choice here is:

Big Mac (TM)
McDeluxe (TM)
McChicken (TM)
Crispy McBacon (TM)
Filet-o-fish (TM)
Royal Cheese
Double Cheese
Cheeseburger
Hamburger
Chicken McNuggets (TM)
Croque McDo (TM)

See it all here : http://www.mcdonalds.be/fr/index_FR....enu:sandwiches

My "European" favorite is the McDeluxe. Well, it seems that the creativity of McD in Europe isn't quite the same on other continents, cause I can't find a Double Royale Cheese or something like a Double Double. . .

And at the moment, I've not really that much time to come to the US and try the other ones.

PS: You could try to mail me one?

A Double-Double isn't at McDonalds, but at In-N-Out Burger. It's a chain of burger joints in the western US.

A Double Quarter Pounder (for which you apparently have no equivalent) would just be your Royal Cheese with twice the patty and cheese.
