sigh... i find this pretty sad... despite iphone's popularity, their gps apps department is still dissapointing

i currently have PPG, and the lag issue (few secs slower in gps compared to real time) is annoying.
Seems other reviews for other gps apps doesn't seem good either...

Just updated my PPG M7 and i noticed the map part is now called map switch, i think in the next update, there might be more than one map used for the M7, hence the option to choose maps  hmm.gif

Not having the privilege of PC at the moment, hence have yet to update. May I know how much they are charging for the TTS?

Might be getting it if $0.99.

However, two issues might come up.

1. It's an English TTS, so local road name might sound funny or not recognizable.

2. What kind of TTS will it be? Pronouncing the name only or with both name and distance? I prefer the latter as it will be less confusing esp it's an English one

If u ask me, I rather their next update be a revamp of their entire interface. Atm it looks vry cheap and ugly.. And for them to fix those lag issues and accuracy as well! Hate it when at times it shows me jumping from the road to a field nxt to me, or on the other side of the road...
