Hi all, I've read this forum for a while now and I’m after some help.

I would like to know what software (for Pocket PC) people think has the most up to date maps. Co Pilot 5 sounds the most updated to me with the feature of updating maps by downloading when updates are available, I think. Does anyone else do this?

I ask because I'm soon moving to Florida and the areas I will be mostly visiting are new(ish) developments, updated maps are important. I've used Navman and Tomtom in the UK and have noticed the maps difference (Navman seemed more updated) but I preferred to use and like Tomtom. Will Tomtoms maps be better for a new version I hear about?

I have a ipaq H5550 and if I used a Bluetooth GPS does that mean I can't use Bluetooth to my mobile phone at the same time. It also seems/sounds a pain to keep charging a Bluetooth GPS. So a wired GPS sounds ok to me. Anybody?

Cheers,

Right now CP5 has the newest maps. There is some (unsubstantiated) hope that the spring will bring new TeleAtlas and Navteq map releases. Which doesn't necessarily mean that these updated maps are better maps.

There are a number of websites that use the same map data - eg www.mapquest.com . Best if you verify those online maps before making your decision.
