You have read about the latest version of Microsoft Streets & Trips 2009 and now you can give it a try!

Many of you have asked in the past for a trial download.  We heard your request and have made the trial download available (even before the full boxed product has made it to the stores!).

I am amazed and how fast the news has traveled around.  Already, 100's of folks have downloaded S&T 2009 and are asking questions.

Here is a quick FAQ:

Q: What is the difference between the Trial Edition and the final edition?  Have any features been withheld?

A: Other than the 60-day trial limit,  there is no difference between the trial and the final version.  It is a fully functioning version of the product.

Q: When does my trial begin?

A: You will begin your trial on your first launch of the application.  You will have 60-days to try it out (regardless of how many times you use the application).

Q: I have a previous version of Streets & Trips installed - do I need to uninstall it first?

A: No, both versions can be installed at the same time.  Be sure to check the "Keep Previous Version" checkbox while installing.

Q: How do I convert my trail to a full edition without the 60-day limit?

A: Purchase the product from your favorite retailer and choose "Activate now" and follow the instructions to enter the Product key that came with your purchased product.  Note: there is no need to uninstall the trial edition and re-install from the purchased edition.

Q:  Can I just buy a Product key online?

A: Currently, this option is not yet available.

Q: Where can I download it?

A: Streets & Trips 2009 Trial Edition can be downloaded from the Microsoft Download Center:
