Re: Win Free DeLorme Street Atlas 2009 with USB GPS Receiver LT-40 Donated by DeLorme
I'd like to win this one, I came here to check on recommendations on which laptop program to get. I have S&T 2006 but I do not like it at all. I find it very hard to work with. I prefer a program that has "RV" friendly POIs

One of the nicest features' DeLorme is the ability to draw in streets that the mapping program can then navigate across  !

Re: Win Free DeLorme Street Atlas 2009 with USB GPS Receiver LT-40 Donated by DeLorme
I'm a retired cruiser (one who lives on a boat) and I run two laptops constantly, one with The CAPN 8.3.20a marine navigation software and the other with an old Streets & Trips 2004 so I can see what is around me when going up or down the Intercoastal Waterway. It's time to see what else is available for land navigation....

Re: Win Free DeLorme Street Atlas 2009 with USB GPS Receiver LT-40 Donated by DeLorme
I would like to a chance for this great contest.
I always like to try some new things, special the new version software. I can compare the new with the old one. I have a MS S/T with receiver, this month I have with it went to Montreal and Quebec, 90% time its working fine, but unfortunately, it didn't work by last day for some unknown reason: my laptop can find USB receive, but can not get any signal, when I back to home, it can working but with very slow to start find any stars information. If I can get this " DeLorme Street Atlas 2009 with USB GPS", would be much appreciated to try a different software and hardware of GPS.
Hopefully, I am luck enough and get the chance to post more test reports.

This is GR8, would be a nice addition to this new OTR (Over The Road) truck drivers $50 laptop. $300 for truck specific GPS maps ( copilot truck) is just plain ridiculous

Wow, after reading this forum for many months, I finally registered and for this! This is great and thanks for the feedback.
I've been looking to upgrade my S&T 2006 edition. I just got an Acer Aspire One notebook and it works great with the GPS. Combining the new S&T 2009 with my new netbook will make this a great combination to help in my travels all around the Washington DC area for work and my camping trips all around Virginia and North Carolina.
Thanks!!!
Paul

Re: Win Free DeLorme Street Atlas 2009 with USB GPS Receiver LT-40 Donated by DeLorme
I have been a Delorme LT-20 user for several years, I use the program in conjunction with our travels and rely heavily on it during my business travels also. My LT-20 is great, but I have heard that the LT-40 has advanced features that I am anxious to use. Delorme is a good name in laptop software and I trully expect the LT-40 to exceed my expectations. My son has the PN-20 and uses it frequently for hiking, geocaching, etc. we are sold out to Delorms.

Hi .... I just found Laptop GPS World because I was looking for a site where I could compare Delorme and Garmin pc navigation prgrams.!! Lo and behold I missed out on entering give-away for the DeLorme 2009 Street Atlas and USB GPS. We will probably purchase the newest gps from DeLorme as we just purchased a travel trailer and want to do more travelling around this good ole USA. What a bummer!! Oh well, perhaps you'll have another giveaway..

Hi joytravel,
 to Laptop GPS World.
Yes, sorry, you just missed it. But stick around, as there may be something similar here a few months down the road  .
My daughter and I just had fun putting the names of the participants into a jar, and she then picked two winners. I attempted to make a short video out of it. The quality is bad  , but I will post it nevertheless  . I hope to announce the two lucky names tomorrow morning.

Well, I don't know how I would use a second copy of SA 2009, probably give it away as a gift. The more I use mine on various trips the more I like it. Seems that customers of Delorme that have bought SA 2009 are being discriminated against.
Oops! I just realized that I am too late.
