CoPilot Live 5 - Pocket PC GPS : Bring it on!
Ok I'm getting impatient...three weeks ago I got CoPilot 4.5 from Travroute to sample before the imminent release of CoPilot Live Version 5.0 and I must say I was impressed. Previous to this, I had Navman's 4410 installed on my O2 XDA II PocketPC and I thought that was good, but CoPilot's ability to read out street names and provide more timely information put CoPilot infront in my books. The only edge Navman had over CoPilot were the 3D maps, but this disadvantage is gone with CoPilot Version 5. Not only does Co-Pilot Live 5 have 3D maps but it also features Safety/Speed Camera alerts, latest version of Sensis maps, night mode, waypoints and ability to communicate to home PC! I'm ready for my upgrade! Apparently existing users can upgrade via the Travroute website (www.travroute.com.au), only thing is, I can't find my product key!!! :( Hope to find this today...
