| Hi all!
I am looking for recommendations on GPS/Navigation software for a pocket pc.
Specfically, I have a PPC-6700 that I use with my Sprint cell service.
Before I had this smart phone, I had a Garmin iQue M5 which I absolutely
LOVED the GPS software on... it used MapSource.
MUST-HAVES for me on this software are:
-voice-command turns
-automatic routing
-prefer to have multiple-waypoint routing
-prefer to have it sync with my outlook contacts and calendar so that I can
route directly to them
thanks for your help!
-Eddie

I have Mapopolis since -- when I was looking for something similar back in
January -- it was one of the few programs that had been ported to work on
Windows Mobile 5 (that your PPC-6700 is running); since then I believe several
of their competitors have as well.
Mapopolis will do the first three items; I don't believe it does the last.
