great shipping.
But, GPS is not good... the voice instruction was confused, and direction by GPS was too late many times. my old navi on my car (2004) is much better.

I own MS Streets & Trips 2004, 2006 and 2008 with GPS. As far as I can tell, and I have looked closely, there is no difference between the 2006 and 2008 versions. I have found, however, a number of streets on the 2004 version which were dropped from the 2006 and 2008 versions. The GPS unit works just fine with the 2004 version. Thank you again, Microsoft.

I have S&T 2005, I think it's a good product with accurate information so 2008 S&T should be better. I tried the new 2008 GPS with 2005 S&T, it works fine, even indoors using the GPS not the wifi locator! which is a surprise!

I just returned from a 6000 mile trip using the S/T 2008. I too had a little trouble with the activation as I was not near WiFi most of the time but once I got a good connections it worked.
In general it worked well. I did laugh when a huge lake in BC did not show up on one side of the road I was traveling beside. It is hard to read a lot of the small type in the car. Looking for the different colors of the minuscule blocks to see which was a restaurant and which was a bank was a problem. GPS reception can be spotty even when it appears it should be ok. On one or two occasions it did confuse left and right but the map was there to confirm.
All in all though it bailed me several times when I had know idea where I was in rural BC. It also got me through Vancouver and Seattle with no hassles. I also love being able to save my trip plans and reuse them again.

Reading all the other comments I am confused at the negative opinions of Streets and Trips. i have been using this software for the last 6 years and each year there are better and more features. I alwasy travel with it and my laptop When on vacations with another couple that has the GPS built into their new car, they prefer that I open the laptop and use Streets and Trips as it gives more information and allows to see where we are and where we can go much better than those mini-screens that are restricted. They do not allow you to see the big picture. Microsoft Streets and Trips is extremely easy to use. I can't comprehend those who complain about it. Maybe they don't know how to read, or how to use a PC.
