  TrafficGauge for PC

  May cause problems

  by: haf canadian on 08-Feb-2008 02:58:01 PM

  Pros: Colorful and animated highway conditions indicators. Likely more useful to those who travel regularly or daily in a monitored high population city. The company's portable device would be valuable in that instance.

  Cons: My trial version had a super handy, always ready screensaver, but it bogged down and eventually froze my computer. Restoring the computer to a date earlier than the TrafficGuage installation repaired the problem. Without the screensaver, TrafficGuage wouldn't be nearly as handy.

  It is limited to certain metropolitan areas of the country, which, granted, is where the traffic is worst; but coverage of more cities would make it more worth the money.
