Microsoft MS Pocket Streets 2005 Media

Can't view the maps

I originally purchased Streets and Trips 2008, hoping for pocket pc availability, but there was none. So I purchased Microsoft Pocket Streets 2005, thinking I could use it as a base from which to download newer maps. However, on downloading to my Dell Axim 30, a message appeared that because...

pretty ok

I think it is better to by the Streets & Trips 2005 because you get a gps device and when you install the software you get pocket streets too so thats more worth it. I think the product is pretty good due to the fact that i use it on my smart phone, its like a map in the palm of my hand. Now my...

The best for Downtown

I have had this product for a while, and it helps me in the downtown, its not much usefull for driving directions. But when you visit a bigcity for the firsttime and planing on walking a bit, and finding the place on ur self then this would help you a lot.

Pocket Streets great help to Fire/EMS personnel!

We use Microsoft Pocket Streets 2005 in our duties as fire & EMS workers.Although we know our districts pretty well, due to recent growth and expansion resulting in more and more streets to keep up with, it's nice to have Pocket Streets on our pocket PC's so we can quickly look up an address....

DON'T BUY! WASTE OF MONEY!

This is a complete joke. The only cities that are in the program for U.S. states are major metro areas. If you have a handheld (either regular or mobile phone) you more than likely also have WiFi or GPRS internet connection. And if you are in a major metro area, with a WiFi connection, why...

Don't buy it

If you can get it for free then ok BUT do not pay for it. Updates are terrible, are there map updates at all? It's handy for locating ATMs, that's about it.

As the power of smart handhelds increases, it's tempting to think of all the ways you can use them regularly. For starters, how about relying on one so you never get lost again? Microsoft Pocket Streets 2005 attempts to achieve that goal by giving you access to static maps of over 500 major...

Pocket Streets

Excellent product for major cities. It will be better once I find out where to find the cities I want. I don't think EVERY city is available. Otherwise it's pretty good

Good

This always was a Microsoft good program, who needs know how be and for where, this is a good choice

Horrible!

Doesn't tell you how to get anywhere when used with a GPS...simply shows you where you are. Nothing more than a glorified paper map. A complete embarassment!
