Which gps programs tell you which side of the street your destination is on?
So with all of these gps threads you'd think the answer to this question would be somewhere, but I haven't seen it.
So far I tried TomTom first, and I like it very much except it didn't announce street names and it didn't tell me which side of the street my destination was on once I arrived. If I need a gps unit to find a business or something, it means I haven't been there before, and I most likely won't know which side it's on. This is an important feature.
I next tried iGuidance and it had both street name announcements and the side of the street thing, so I stuck with it. Well it's getting annoying because it's route finding decisions are not nearly as smart as TomTom was. Also it's poi database isn't very complete.
So I was thinking of trying iGo or Garmin, but I thought I'd ask here fist and see if those of you actually using them can tell me if they have the above two features.
- Announce street names
- Announce which side of the street once you arrive
Oh, and I'm only interested in offline navigators, ie they don't require a data connection, and you download the maps seperately. I'm often outside of cell range.
Thank you!
