I think that many of us have positive stories to tell about our use of
Sendero's GPS. A few months ago we were in Grand Rapids Michigan, our plane
landed about 11:00 at night, and we wanted to eat before we drove to our
final destination. We could have driven around for a half hour until we
found something that was open and then it might or might not be desirable to
us. With the GPS though, I was able to locate a restaurant that we were
familiar with and direct us there.
Still, I agree with the current focus of Sendero, I don't think they've
compromised much in either regard.

taxation WITH representation isn't so hot, either!
It sure is nice.
I was in SF a few weeks ago when my driver was trying to find a dentist office in order to pick up another passenger.
There are so many one way streets in downtown SF, that she couldn't figure out the best places to make the turns.
So I created the route and guided her all the way there. She was quite impressed and even later told her dispatcher, who was unable to figure out the best route for her to take.

Andy,
You are absolutely correct. This is why we have added so many vehicular
features in the last couple releases. If you go down the feature by feature
list of the Sendero GPS, you will find that there are about twice as many as
any other accessible product.
Kind of nice to be a blind back or front seat driver.

Item 6 has been added to the review list for the next release.
Item 1 is in review, at the current time most of our efforts will be in the vision impaired guidance area. Vehicle guidance will take a lower priority

Items one and six would be my top priorities -- i.e.
1. For vehicle routes there should be an option to select the shortest route as well as the quickest route just like in other commercial GPS systems.
6. In the set address dialog, there should be a way of moving back to the previous prompt just in case you want to change something.
