ALK CoPilot 10 just arrived for a review. I was expecting the software-only version, but a very welcome surprise bonus is the included GPS receiver. The unit is branded "CoPilot", but it is in fact the very popular
BU-353 by GlobalSat - a
USB GPS receiver based on the excellent SiRFstarIII chipset.
Beside the program-only version, ALK also offers it bundled with a choice of a Philips GPS unit (software GPS), BU-353 by Globalsat, or a Bluetooth unit.
After having reviewed
Microsoft Streets & Trips 2008, and iNav
iGuidance 4, a couple of days ago I started to work on a review of
DeLorme Street Atlas 2008. When that is done, in about a week or two, I will start working on ALK CoPilot Live Laptop 10.
EDIT: ALK CoPilot Live | Laptop 10 review has just been posted.
