Rating: - good program
This is a very good mapping program. It is easy to install and register. Making a trip plan is very easy and there are a lot of options for length of day, speed, and extra stops. If anything could be improved, more hotel brands and restaurants could be included. I would recommend this program to anyone looking for a better than average mapping solution.

Rating: - MS Streets & Trips 2009
This product is easy to use and much, much more accurate than Internet mapping sites. It loads and searches quickly. I use it both at home and while on the road. Free shipping was a plus too.

I depend on this route planner for all my travel. It has been extremely dependable. You can pick the shortest or quickest route to see which you prefer. The updated information on construction projects is another plus.

Rating: - Microsoft Streets & Trips 2009
Streets & Trips is well worth purchasing, as it is significantly upgraded from previous versions. I bought the software without the GPS locater as I have a GPS unit anyway.

Rating: - My second update: very good
Microsoft Streets & Trips 2009 has been as good and the first two editions I have had for several years. I go to "Streets" often, to calculate my mileage during the day/week when I forget to set my car's mileage marker. I trust these versions beyond the internet varieties. I can find my destination faster than going through the internet. It is worth the investment and the upgrades.
