so the nest step is to get gpsgate, or gpsproxy to get i guidance to update correctly?
Yep.. follow TaylnOne's instructions step by step, in the GPS Titan Faq sticky, and you'll be fine.. You need GPS Gate because it re-routes the internals to Com2, bypassing the Microsoft drivers. it's a bug (or lack of development) in iGuidance.. and you have to do this to get your location to update real time while using iGuidance..

As far as all the other programs - (Garmin etc..) - it's really all personal preference.
Yes, Garmin has it's OWN primer, and you don't have to go through all this crap to get it running..
i used it for about a week.. it worked well.. but i just didn't love it.
then tried iGuidance and i think it is FAR superior.. the voice turn by turn with street names, is just awesome..
