Just bought PAPAGO and tried in Klang Valley... works wonder..instant rerouting

Only disadvantage, it seems to bring you to the most traffic route even though i choose shortest route... POI is at least updated and able to search most of the place...

Hope they can slot in latest map and improve interface...

Now wanted to get a car kit... the battery seems to be draining very fast...

just my views of papago (do note i'm a new GPS user ya... )

pro
1. like the junction view, helps a lot, definitely worth the money
2. most updated map for iphone so far
3. voice command that can tell you 'turn left at the third junction', etc

cons
1. feel like 'delay' for a few seconds, the phone show my location about 3 sec later...
2. can't link to contacts like google map do, ie save the location and tie to a contact in the phone
3. sometimes ask me to U-turn at junction that cannot u-turn - physically cannot...
4. junction at certain new highway quite confusing, believe is because map not updated (although these highway are build prior to jun 09) - hope the updated version will fix this

overall, quite happy with it.

hope it helps

Yes, a, b and c are definitely a MUST for the next upgrade. Also a (d)...

d. Save preferred/actual route into favourites.

Let's hope Maction will put these in for the next map release... and hope it is soon... cos the current map is dated 26 June 2009.

Can someone please feedback to them directly? How to do that?
