Re: Talking GPS Software

I dont know if its changed but I tried the garmin mobile xt about a year ago and the main thing I disliked about it was the fact that it would not say the street names (TTS) as opposed to their standalone units which do. This reason alone is why I switched over to iGuidance which is one of the few solutions out there that do say the street names. So for example instead of saying 'turn right' it saids 'turn right on calvert street'. I find this gives me a much better sence of where I am and where I'm going. Until garmin and tomtom implement this on there mobile gps's I wont be making the switch anytime soon.
