Handmark ZAGAT To Go 2006 Win/Mac/Palm OS

I wish that they would update the software for the Palm T|X. The new versions only run on the Palm phones. You receive the software and an activation code for this. The activation code does not work correctly. You have to contact Handmark by email to get them to do the activation. The product itself is great since it contains all the Zagat guides. But, the product description should make it clear that you are getting a 1 year subscription only.

The Zagat reviews are great, and the software gives you the power of a small, user-friendly database. My only complaint is that you cant see the restaurant location on a map. The reviews from Vindigos software (check out Vindigos web site for more information about this product) arent nearly as good, but the mapping feature is outstanding. I couldnt live without Vindigo, but I think the quality of the reviews from Zagat still offer enough value to justify owning both. One work of caution, what youre buying is a one year subscription to the Zagat To Go software. After one year the software drops dead. Its still a great deal if you need more than one Zagat city guide. One irritating thing is that Zagat charges $25 to renew your subscription, so youre better off just buying another copy from Amazon after your old copy expires.
