iGuidance is a truly powerful vehicle navigation system. The GPS receiver (sold separately or in package) shows your current position on a detailed map displayed on your laptop or pocket PC. iGuidance works with GPS receivers that are based on the NMEA protocol using serial, USB, CF card, or bluetooth interface. The iGuidance software not only finds the best route to a destination (quickest or shortest), it also provides turn-by-turn directions with voice prompting to get you to where you need to be. Some examples of GPS receivers that can be used with this mapping are GlobalSat BT-338, BT-359W, BU-353 USB and Garmin GPS 10x (receiver only).
