3.0 out of 5 stars Great Software. GPS Receiver, not so much., April 22, 2011
This review is from: Microsoft Streets & Trips with GPS Locator 2011 (DVD-ROM)
I am Donna's husband and I got Microsoft Streets & Trips 2011 with the USB GPS receiver a few days ago. I didn't really notice any changes between the 2009 version and the 2011 version of Streets & Trips. Just newer maps. I give the software 5 stars.

The GPS receiver that comes with Streets & Trips is the "u-blox 5 GPS and GALILEO Receiver" by ublox. [...] I downloaded the "u-center GPS evaluation software" [...] and installed in on my desktop computer and my Acer netbook computer. I then plugged the USB GPS receiver into each computer and, using the u-center software, monitored the GPS receiver's performance. Here is what I found:

The GPS receiver would not lock up when plugged directly into the netbook no matter how long I left it. It would find one or two satellites but that was all. When I connected it to the netbook using the included USB extension cable, it would lock up in 5 - 10 minutes. After it got a lock, it's performance seemed about as good... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Microsoft...Ugh!!, May 5, 2011
This review is from: Microsoft Streets & Trips with GPS Locator 2011 (DVD-ROM)
As a general mapping software, Streets & Trips doesn't do a bad job, though apparently Microsoft doesn't allow their programmers out of their cubicles to understand the real world. After the number of years this program has been out, and with all the new releases, this should be an incredibly good program by now. You can find locations a number of ways...by street address, intersection, and even GPS coordinates (don't forget to add the minus symbol for longitude if you're in the U.S.). Streets & Trips adds some great capabilities over your portable GPS devices. You can see a large screen version of your route and, where you have a stop planned, you can see the mapped locations of a variety of different businesses and points of interest based on your selections. They leave a lot of businesses out, unfortunately, but, still, it provides a fair amount of information. One of the unique features, and a saving grace in the face of other design buffoonery, is the ability to alter the... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Does not work with GPS Navigation, June 9, 2011
By 
Masazumi Kotani "Nikon Lover" (Hacienda Heights, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Microsoft Streets & Trips with GPS Locator 2011 (DVD-ROM)
I purchased Street & Trips 2011 and Microsoft GPS receiver separately and installed 15.6" laptop and connect 3.5mm mini cable to Ford Escape speaker system to use next 6,000mile trip.
Installation is very easy and GPS receiver is very good and trip planning is very easy except some street number are in-correct.
Microsoft Navigation program need much improvement as bellow:
1) Speech engine is very poor, very difficult to understand voiced instruction, need another speech engine like AT&T natural voice, Real Speak or Acapela speech engine.
2)Instruction for off ramp on the freeway is too late to change lanes, need warning at least one mile before off ramp.
3)Need instruction which way to enter the freeway, like " Enter Interstate 5 north"
4)Need instruction of destination is which side of the street, Left or right side.
I purchased and installed AT&T Natural voice speech engine and much easier to understand voiced instruction.

I am now final... Read more
