Microsoft Pocket Streets

Pocket Streets was Microsoft's mapping product for Windows Mobile-based Pocket PCs and Smartphones, but the product line has been dropped. Pocket Streets could track your current location, show surrounding points of interest, and display customizable maps. Although the product line has been discontinued for a number of years, it is still possible to buy Microsoft Pocket Streets 2005 from a number of vendors.

Unlike the main competitors, Pocket Streets did not include any routing abilities. For routing capabilities you should look at running Streets & Trips on a laptop.

The latest version of MapPoint, MapPoint 2010 has a number of new features targeted at mobile devices. These include the ability to import or export GPX files.
