Having used "03 and "04 Streets and Trips, I was disappointed that this "USB GPS" version still used serial port drivers to allow USB operation instead of direct USB.The most disturbing problem, however, is that some how they have screwed up the data base where a large percentage of the addresses I have tried to find are wrong or not on the maps.The search feature accurately found these addresses on previous versions and no support to S&T; '05 is currently provided by Microsoft.Except for a slightly better GPS interface, not much new is offered by the `05 consequently, I would avoid `05 Streets and trips and go with the '04 version.
