Lonely Planet CitySync

Rating:
Summary: Worth the price.
Review: After test driving one of the cities from the CitySync site I bought the software and I have not been disappointed. I decided to test drive the software by trying a city that I was familiar with and, thereby, check the accuracy and usefulness of the information provided.

I found the information to be basic for someone familiar with a particular city, but it was accurate and potentially useful for a tourist. After buying the software I loaded another city. (Even after buying the software you're limited to loading no more than four cities, so carefully select the cities you will use most.) I loaded Vegas prior to my last trip there and, even though I'm fairly familiar with the city, I found the information to be useful.

The restuarant reviews may be somewhat typical and brief, but when you need to make a choice on the run a quick check of the Palm can be very helpful. Also, once you're familiar with using the software the maps can be useful and much easier to carry than a paper fold-up map.
