The best GPS navigation software I ever saw (especially for in-town street navigation) wrote by Japanese company Xanavi ( http://www.xanavi.co.jp/e/products/index.html ) for Nissan/Infinity native in-car navigation systems. The only one problem - it is not PC/Windows -based software of course. But if you really want it you can buy aftermarket in-car navi unit with already build-in Xanavi's software ( http://www.autonav2000.com/Products/Voyager/Default.htm ).Originally posted by Whaleboy
.... I think MapPoint is probably gonna end up being the next best thing?
I'm currently using RadioShock's DigiTraveler 16-channels GPS receiver and both MS MapPoint 2002 and DeLorme Street Atlas USA Plus 2003 ( http://www.delorme.com ). DeLorme much much better than MapPoint and even Rand McNally. But as every product it has advantages and disadvantages. The biggest disadvantage is that you cannot install map on your PC's HD. You need always keep map CD in the CD/DVD-ROM. But functionality, map visualization and general user interface are great. Also you can switch map to nighttime view if you driving during the late evening or night. It also has voice navigation feature with the ability to follow operator's verbal commands.
