It can be used for in car nav BUT it needs internet each time you need to route/reroute and maps are not included, you need to download each tiles(jpg) of map you need (at each zoom you need...) : consider MM not as a nav software but as a mapping software.

Shortly after I typed that message, I realized that MS Streets and Trips wouldn't work on it since it's not a Windows OS. I guess I'll just have to go with Navicore Software and get the North American maps. I just wish it wasn't so damn expensive...although it does seem as though MM might have enough functionality to do what I was hoping for.
