Flight Planning Software

Jeppesen FliteStar VFR is on offer at the moment for under £90. I want it, of course (the New Toy syndrome); but do I need it?

I've read all the publicity material but still don't fully understand what it does for me. My background is as an ex-RAF QFI who has taught pilot nav, so I am certainly at home with manual methods, but I'm always happy to have life made a little easier and perhaps quicker. What's the opinion of people who have experience of using this software - or indeed cheaper alternatives such as Navbox?
