It is portable and lightweight, so you can put it on the dashboard or any other location that provides a direct line of sight to the sky. The included map data covers the U.S. and Canada, in detailed street names, even major interests such as restaurants and parks. The navigation software gives detailed driving direction in text, graphic and voice. The voice instruction indicates distance, and turns.

1 out of 5 stars bad product, bad service.......2007-03-23

Originally I want to have this GPS working with my notebook. After two RMAs and long hours w/ the support, I still could not get them to work with my two notebooks. They refused to refund also.Bad service and bad product. Do not buy.

1 out of 5 stars DOES NOT WORK WITH POcket PC / WM 5.0.......2006-12-30

STAY AWAY IF YOU INTEND TO USE WITH A POCKET PC. It will not work on Windows Mobile 5.0, and IOGear knows it. It will slow your device to a crawl. I use a powerful Dell Axim x51 (fastest processor availabel and lots of RAM). They said they would patch it in 2005, but it's almost 2007 and they still haven't.

They guy who said it works with his Pocket PC was running WM 2003, and yes, it works with that.

iGuidance uses the same software base and they have patched their's. Consider iGuidance if you don't want to have to hook up your laptop to the car just to use GPS. Their customer service is outsourced and unhelpful

5 out of 5 stars Good Hardware, So-So Software.......2006-05-30

I have owned the IOGEAR Bluetooth GPS unit for almost a year now and I absolutely love it. This GPS unit locks on to satellites very quickly and it has never dropped out of reception. The mapping software (and maps database) however is another story. Keep in mind I made my purchase a year ago. They might have made improvements on the software since. I did not have the bad CD woes a couple of the reviewers have. My complaints are as follows. While making turns (usually onto or off of a freeway ramp), it sometimes gives off a rapid succession of contradicting instructions. It gets back on track once the turn is completed however. Sometimes, it doesn't give enough advance notice before a turn, although this doesn't happen very often. The software package is not ALL bad. For example, I love how it automatically computes a new route every time you make a wrong turn. It also lets out a sound right at a turn so you know whether you've made a right turn. The voice giving directions is crisp, clear, and pleasant. On my Axim x30 624 Mhz, the routing/re-routing computation is done very quickly. I also love the ease with which the maps on the CD can transferred to my pocket PC. I was able to load the entire map of CA and NV onto my pocket PC with unbelievable ease. How much map data you load is entirely up to you and the only constraint is the capacity of your SD/CF card or harddrive (for those using a laptop). All in all, despite a few minor shortcomings (annoyances mostly), the software is very usable -- it's never failed to bring me to my destinations. Due to budget constraints, I'm sticking to the bundled software for now. But if you can afford it, do a little research by reading reviews for other GPS software such as TomTom, Mapopolis, etc. among many others. Hardware-wise, the GPS unit is superb and I strongly recommend it. I am awarding 5 Stars for the hardware and 3 Stars for the software.

3 out of 5 stars problem with CDs.......2006-02-28

I have a same problem with the below review.

So far as... I even have no chance to use this GPS because not only 'setup CD' but also 'map CD' doesn't work. IOGEAR said they will send other CDs but I should wait 1 week more. Don't order this GPS if you need to use it immediately.
IOGEAR website doesn't offer download of setup programe.

2 out of 5 stars Am I missing something about the software?.......2006-02-21

If I was just reviewing the receiver itself, it would receive 5 stars. However, I have had nothing but problems with the bundled software.

The original CDs that came with it did not work on my computer for some reason. They came up as totally blank, and I even got the automatic Windows "what would you like to do with this blank CD" menu when I popped each of them in. I immediately went to work with diagnostics on my 5 month old CD/DVD-RW drive, and even did the HP online chat help to try and figure something out. I have tried all other computer data CDs that I have, and they all worked (really, ALL of them did). Music CDs and DVDs of the original and burned variety also worked.

I emailed IO Gear about the problem (after 4 phone calls I have only been able to talk to an actual person on their tech support line once, and he promptly put me on hold for so long I hung up), and they sent me a new set of CDs. These didn't work, either. So they sent another set. Same story. I tried them in my computer at work, and a total of 4 CDs out of the 12 worked there, so I burned copies of those so I could install the software on my computer at home.

These seemed to work at first, but the laptop program claims it is not properly installed and any maps that require the 2 maps CDs claim that those CDs are the wrong version. This is all probably due to copyright protection on the original CDs, which I can understand.

After all of this, I have a product that I've paid good money for that I can't use, sold to me by a company that doesn't seem to care or be able to help me at all, if I can get through to them. In the meantime I'm glad the device will work with any software, although Pocket Streets is really just a map, not something that can generate directions (or if it can, I don't know how).

By the way, if anyone can help me with this it would be much appreciated.
