I have been using Microsoft Streets and Trips for many years. This is still my preferred mapping software for the following reasons :nn- Ease of usen- Accurate and up-to-date information. The program constantly checks for the latest updates for route planningn- Information for nearby places (such as restaurants and gas stations..which are great while I am on a trip)n- Free coupons (there is a catch. You get a 14 days/ 25 coupons free trial but then have to pay $30 annual fee)n- excellent customer support. I contacted support once for installation issue. They would continue to follow-up days after to make sure my problems were corrected.

What I would like to see for future enhancements :nn- allows exporting of maps to PDAsn- yellow pages for business referencennAll in all, this is a great piece of software for my desktop and laptop.
