Product Description This package of the Earthmate GPS LT-20 GPS receiver and Street Atlas USA 2005 software can turn your laptop into a powerful GPS tracking device. The GPS LT-20 is a high-performance, easy-to-use link to the satellite navigation technology of the Global Positioning System (GPS). Accessing these satellites is available for no additional charge. Earthmate, connected to a USB laptop PC, shows your real-time position on detailed Street Atlas USA maps anywhere in the U.S., so you will always know where you are and where you need to go. Customer Reviews Software is un-useable Software is so bad I sent the whole packages back (before even trying the GPS), and purchased the Microsoft product. Terrible Software The software for this system is so horrible, I doubt even the developers could figure out some of the features. I'm an experienced engineer, and I couldn't figure out how to get the thing to easily navigate to a Walmart once it was found on their database. Their database is also terrible, and doesn't include things like drug stores. I don't even want to waste my time on this review, it's that terrible...I develop software for experienced technical professionals, and if my software engineers gave me this they'd be out of a job. Good Luck. With the 2006 software this is great I live in Southwest Virginia, a very rural and mountainous area, and this device along with the software has not gotten me lost yet. I am very pleased with the voice commands, and the maps. I love the feature that if you press F5 (repeat last command) that it will update you travel distance and estimated time (based on your speed) tell it to you. The best feature by far was its ability to get me back on route when I made a wrong turn. It quickly recalculates your route, and begins speaking the direction to get back on route immediately. Being a guy I naturally hate pulling over at a gas station for directions, and hopefully this baby will keep that from happening again. Over all I give this 5 out of 5 stars, I have used the Garmin GPS 18 (very similar to this) and I hated the user interface of the software. It took longer to recalculate routes, and the map is VERY hard to read (especially if you are at a red light and only have a couple of seconds).
