Not worth the hassle of an upgrade
I use S & T 2005, and it works just fine, even with the slight interface issues. Every time I come to purchase the latest version, I am reminded that the copyright protection is annoying and dependant on online registration. I won't be spending my money on such a product which requires online registration. I am getting ready to replace my road warrior laptop, and I value my time too much to spend it trying to contact a MS representative to convince the phone drone that I legitimately purchased the software, and need to get my license enabled for installation onto another machine because I have purchased a newer laptop.
Combine that with the numerous comments that there is no improvement over content of UI design, then the reason to purchase is a no brainer.
I almost forgot, there are many reviewed comments that the products installation is unstable on many laptops. This last fact pretty much renders this latest and greatest version worthless IMHO.

Streets and trips review
This product takes up way too much room on my hard drive. I am thinking of uninstalling it and sending it back and rely on the old mapquest. This does make it handy however for routing a tour since I am a real estate agent, but not worth buying a new computer over.

good, but not perfect
I purchased this edition to upgrade from the 2006 edition. As is typical, "up-to-date" means the data is about two years old. My subdivision, created in the summer of 2006, is not indicated in any way. Several new portions of interstate 40 near Greensboro were opened last year - under construction for four years - and are not included, while a segment of I-73 that has not even been started is shown as complete.
I don't use GPS, so I can't comment on it. The thre D maps are interesting and can be useful.

Streets and Trips #1 for sales travel
For sales people who cover a territory, there is no better product than Microsoft® Streets and Trips. You can import thousands of prospects, assign them unique pushpins that identify their 'sales value' to you, search for best prospects and plan sales calls that group them together. Then you plug in a GPS receiver, and the laptop you have to carry with you anyway guides you with GPS turn by turn spoken directions. You keep your eyes on the road, instead of having to glance down to read hand written directions - or a printout map. Streets and Trips helps reduce the cost of sales by ensuring reps know about all the opportunities in the area - and because they have great planning tools that let the rep ask questions like: "show me how many prospects are within `X' driving minutes of my current location" and more - they can travel more efficiently and see more prospects in the same trip - saving gas and maybe even a return airfare. Reps spend more time in front of the prospect selling instead of behind the windshield driving. [...]
