A) You never know if/where the street sign will be; B) Streets can have different names on the left/right; C) Street names will be in a different language; D) There can be six streets coming into a roundabout. It may actually be helpful to have the street name "translated" into familiar pronunciation, but I would guess that "third exit" and "turn left" would be much better when whirling through a roundabout. Has anyone tried this? I’m mostly interested in using GPS when I drive in Europe.

Text-to-speech is touted so much that it seems like it is something that you just must have. I DON'T NEED OR WANT THE TEXT-TO-SPEECH FEATURE. This information was very helpful.
