 Not worth it - don't bother October 13, 2007
The software is very slow on Palm. The search take a light year to get anything done. It's not worth trying it - even if they give you money. I can not believe they are selling it for money. Stay away from it!!
If you are looking for a street mapping program for your PDA, don't buy this one February 18, 2007
The product is not good. I gave it 2 stars because it did successfully download onto my PDA, but beyond that it was difficult and confusing. If you couple this product with a GPS system it will work, you will know where you are. However, the routing function on the PDA is a disaster and it will jam up if your route is more than a few miles resulting in the operator having to reset their device. Several of the roads are not joined in the program's software which causes the program to create some pretty interesting routes.
The computer interface is very confusing, I wasted a lot of time trying to figure out how to save a route so that it will successfully transfer to my Palm. I did read the other bad reviews before I purchased this product but I had not choice because I wanted to integrate my DeLorme TOPOs onto my PDA and there was no other way to do it. Maps are only provided in 2D, which is pathetic considering there are so many good 3D mapping programs on the market.
If you can avoid buying this product please do so. Many of the major mapping companies have opted to make the PDA interface standard with their mapping programs, if Delorme is trying to force its PDA customers to cough up additional money for a PDA interface the least the company could do is create a worthwhile product.
 Not Easy to Use, But Works Great January 29, 2007

I have an Ipaq RX3115 with bluetooth GPS. SA Handheld works great with the combination. I have made routes on the Ipaq (with difficulty) and the routing has been right on the money every mile. The voice commands are very nice (along with the routing), making the program a better choice for those who need those features. Otherwise Streets and Trips is a better choice for handhelds and definitely a better choice for laptops since it has the routing and voice commands for laptops. Overall I am pleased with the program due to the added extras that S&T does not have.
Just plain awful September 13, 2006

This software is simply unusable. The routes generated on the PDA bear no relationship to reality, the verbal instructions to turn occur as you are passing the turn, not before, and the tech support just ignores you. Avoid at all costs.
Price is the only draw to this package July 18, 2006

If price is the key to your buying decision, then this is the package for you. If ease of use and reliability are more your bag, keep looking. This review is based on the PALM version of the software.
Desktop: graphics are not nearly as nice as Microsoft's Strets & Trips, and it doesn't appear to allow you to export multiple routes in one shot to the hand-held. To bad MS doesn't make a Palm client.
Routing: frequently tried to take me off road between curvy sections of an interstate.
Bluetooth GPS: This is my biggest complaint. It FREQUENTLY loses connnection to my bluetooth GPS receiver. I've run other software on the same Palm T|X without ever losing connectivity. DeLorme represents reinstalling the package. Sure. At least that will get me to hang up the phone.
Tracking: gives notice that you have a turn coming up in "less than one half mile." Ok...what about when ALL your turns are in a short distance? Should be configurable to give additional notices.
