You can't use Garmin map for Papago, they use different format...Android GPS Software, What is your pick?

QUOTE(jtdc @ Feb 1 2012, 06:24 PM) i particularly like that feature hence i am considering. what i am concerned also was my question, is that can all the maps or anything that require data can be obtained while i am on wifi, so that on the road i don't need any data connection, just GPS and I will be okay? Papago only need internet connection while you downloading the map to your PC... After that you will no need any internet connection until your next map update... (maybe a month once) |

QUOTE(Dannyl @ Feb 5 2012, 02:20 PM) You are right. I stand by my statement when I said, "Papago is only good if used within these few countries because of local community maps." MFM was forced to stop support for X5 by M3GPS in order to give way for newer version... User who need the latest map need to update their software...That thread discusses M8/M9, which is not available for public use yet, correct? At least, I cannot find it in the online shop. So, you are right again, I will stop making further comments since I cannot use it yet. BTW, Thai version of Papago can have landscape mode, so I don't know why local versions have this restriction. MFM's support for Papago X5 has stopped since Oct 2011, so it's not really that updated anymore (POIs change a lot in 4 months). But still better than the competitors, I suppose. That why I still kept my N85 for road navigation because for Mobile XT the map compatible to all Garmin device... And I still getting my month update map since 6 years ago... Also I can help supporting the map using my Garmin 76csx... collecting track and POI... which can using the same map... |

QUOTE(DarkNite @ Feb 5 2012, 10:27 PM) I feel Mobile XT is best 'turn-by-turn voice navigation'! Garmin only stop support for software but you can always update your map at MSM or MFM...Just too bad it's not support anymore since 2008. Papago X5 is sux! I hate the cheong hei, voice 'at the intersection', 'at the intersection', 'at the intersection'! Papago M8.2.0 will blow you away! It is awesome, almost as close as Garmin! The voice is more precised and does tells out the road names. I hope M9 will be even better than M8.2.0 & have sweeter female voice! |

QUOTE(DarkNite @ Feb 6 2012, 09:31 AM) I update at MFM but mfm these days not so friendly & receptive anymore. Perhaps less people contributing due to current device more on user applications not contributor...Many of the POI in Penang are out of date - example business change name and service, are not updated for 2 years! With Mobile XT you can mark POI and upload it to Garmin Mapsource for ease your contributing to those site while software like X5 didn't allowed you to do that. Until now I never find way to key-in coordinate... |
