Is "Voice, Turn By Turn" navigation useless in general? Heck no. I'd rather have you listening to a device -- while driving -- than looking down at your smartphone, your GPS or your map! :)

One disadvantage is that the maps *sometimes* come a bit old, a bit outdated. Usually not a big deal but roads change. Last time I looked (2005 or so) it was $150 for a new DVD to update the GPS in the Honda.
