GPS device for navigation

jat_pal SG

i was just wondering if anyone here uses any GPS device for navigation or getting to certain places. Or do most of the drivers here have almost perfect knowlegde of the Spore roads. I was thinking of getting a GPS receiver to assist me in my direction. Any advise ?

The map that is downloaded on the navigation system is out dated and might post potential hazard if you reliable 100 percent on it. If you are really interested in buying one try to get those that are bigger in size. Those tat cost $300 or slightly higher will have screens that are too small for comfortable driving.

Download the software into a XDA II.Works quite well.

What if i use a GPS receiver instead and use the palm top as my screen ? Do you all know where i can find this kind of device ?

Tom Tom Go is pretty popular over in europe and highly rated. google it and check with the manufacturer if they have maps for s’pore/malaysia.

thanks zulu. I attended a roadshow once and saw one GPS receiver going at $299 + $50 for Spore and JB maps. However, he admited that this receiver is still not legalise in Spoe as yet so . . .
