Top GPS Guide

CoPilot Live is a full featured Trip-Planning and GPS Navigation system offering the latest map data, new POI database, dynamic route guidance and auto-recalculation. It is your one stop solution for all your traveling needs.

CoPilot is the award-winning GPS navigation system trusted by thousands of RV owners on the road today. With a quick installation on your laptop, CoPilot’s great views and clearly spoken turn-by-turn directions provide worry-free route guidance to any destination nationwide.

Everyone gets lost, but while some people depend on maps or the kindness of strangers to find their way, we prefer GPS navigators. The high-tech devices are available at increasingly low prices, and you can get one that has simple navigational features or, if you want to pony up the cash, you can snap up a fancier unit with bells and whistles like a digital camera or MP3 player.

If you’re in the market for a GPS unit, there are a few things to look for. First, figure out what you want the device to do. If you’re simply looking for a location-finder, you’ll likely pay about $300 (the lower end). But if you want extra features like Bluetooth, an MP3 player, or a PDA-type device that comes with GPS, expect to pay closer to $500 or more.

While CoPilot Live is the best notebook GPS option around, it doesn’t even hold up against low-priced dashboard models. This is the tenth version of the product, and it’s in dire need of a major interface improvement, which the company promises to make in upcoming versions. We were especially disappointed by the POI selection screen, which doesn’t list enough categories (there’s no bank/ATM option, for example) and doesn’t break up restaurants by cuisine.

FEATURES:

* Dynamic Route Guidance Provides voice guided, turn-by-turn directions to any address.
* Automatic Route Recalculation Directions are updated every second. If you miss a turn, you get new directions instantly.
* Two-Way Voice Technology Gives detailed spoken instructions and responds to your voice commands.
* Basic Routing Options: Lets you easily select between Quickest, Shortest, RV as well as offering a Toll Avoidance option.
*
Detour and Avoid Roads Gets you around unexpected traffic or street congestion and lets you avoid roads.
