this is one of the better gps units you can get

Pick up the whole package on ebay. It'll be cheaper then buying the receiver alone. I have 2006 Streets and Trips w/ GPS. Works great!

 

I've used Streets&Trips, and several others, but I always end up coming back to DeLorme's Street Atlas USA & Topo USA products. I generally run one of their Earthmate USB GPS units in the car, though I've been using my old Garmin eTrex Legend lately, just because of the built-in display. Easier for hopping into the car and driving to somewhere, when I don't need the features a laptop adds.

 

so can these be used on any laptop??? as long as you have the software?? Mac or Pc?? I have both.. and wanted to get a GPS thingo like sue sue.. er john john.. er wall wall of tvs... nope.. I mean Tom Tom....

 

yes, you can install me onto your laptop and then I'll tell you where to go....

 

yes they should. I have a ms streets and trip 2007 so I have that, I just need the sensor so I don't have to type in the from address.

Yea I bought one of the ones he (Techy101 I believe) had. Its part number is BU-353 but I don't know the brand. Works great and is really small. Has a magnet on the bottom in case you want it outside the car. I just keep it in the back window.

 

^its the same one i posted a link to. If anyone is getting one thats the one to get.

 

Ah so it is. Like he ^^^ said. That is the one to get.
