Brothers,
IT Show coming.
Which is the best GPS navigation system?
Do you have to pay any monthly or yearly fee?
Hmmm... i don't think there is a best ... if u are interested to
get one just go the retailers to test. Different brands comes with
different softwares so it about being comfortable with it..
there is no monthly or yearly fee thuo a brief insight for some
brands...
Garmin and TomTom are the so call "market leaders"
and uses their own software but according to some TomTom updates
usually come later than others. Garmin so far nv hear much
complains thuo and garmin comes with a wider range some even can
watch TV and now another going common but well recieved feature,
Live traffic updates
Holux uses
papago and galatico softwares.. i
am using papago (developed with Singapore land authority) currently
, updates are quarterly, searching speed is ok but i dunno abt
other brands but the road names on the map of
papago usually cant see the "Ave x" or "lor x",
and when start up will take quite awhile to locate ur current
direction esp if your last location is quite far from ur
current.
Galatico software are said to be slower in
reaction, last heard from those who upgraded from papago to
galatico that there is always this 2 sec lag involved but the
software comes with a couple of handy info like parking rates
etc
Aigo is
the next that caught my attention because now they are using a
software developed with yellow pages singapore.. so more details
are available for search like block no. unit no. etc but i have yet
to test one.
Marbella ... i don't know :p
See your budget and needs ba, best to go hand on on one to see
how comfortable u are with their features, speed, and interface
