Hi, I have installed the pocket version of Microsoft Streets and trips 2005 on my Windows Mobile 5 iPaq, everything works just fine, but is it me, or the software is... empty? I mean, it does not show the speed, no distance, no tracks, and you cant even make a path/destination. So I am wondering if that is normal, or I need to download some plug ins, if they exist.

Thank you

*A little correction, it DOES show the speed, but no distance, path, or any other normal GPS functions

What model pocket pc doyou have? Have you used otther GPS software on it successfully?

     

I use an HP iPaq hx 2490b, and yes, I have used other GPS software, and they all work perfectly, I have them running at full capacity, but the problem with them is that I dont find the maps for them, because they are not so known. And the Microsoft one is the only one that actually shows me on a map. But all I can do is see my speed, find an address, and move the map.
Oh, and if thats of any importance, I use the Microsoft (Pharos)GPS-500 with a Pharos CF adaptor...

ya, streets and trips sucks that way. its nothing youre doing or not doing.

Canadian maps are definitely available out there through other software vendors

oh. dang =P. thanx for info

Pocket streets is about worthless & useless.

mappoint is a good program on the pc. streets and trips is so handicapped with all these other great softwares out there
