I've been using Pocket Streets 2003 for a while now but I don't really like it.
It's probably not the fault of the program cause I love using Streets and Trips but the Pocket version just has too many shortcomings.
I think in order for Pocket Streets to be any good the program is going to be huge.
As someone had said, you can't plot out a route.
And, you have to install maps so planning a trip from city to city or state to state makes it very difficult.
It's a great program but I think it's not yet feasible for the handheld until they can fit the whole program on the PPC. Or, at least make the maps mergeable (is that a word?) so you don't have to load a new map when you enter a new city.
I'm looking at alternatives but unfortunately for me, I live in Canada so there doesn't seem to be many other options.
