Jan 2006 Road Trip Revolutions: The MyGuide 500 Navigation System Reviewed

"With the introduction of the MyGuide 500, fans of Pocket PC navigation systems have an option that matches the form factor advantages of dedicated navigation units. OCN 5 remains a top choice among Pocket PC navigation software, and the new seamless maps eliminate another advantage that dedicated units could claim. And in my opinion, the value quotient clearly favors the MyGuide 500. When the MyGuide 500 can match the capabilities of the higher priced dedicated units at a price more in the league of the entry level dedicated units, theres little reason to look anywhere else." by Doug Raeburn of PocketPcThoughts.com  more
