I have never use Garmin original map but among those 2 the most famous free GPS maps for malaysia. I can say for Perlis, Penang, Kedah and Perak, Selangor and KL you can use MFM. For Melaka, N. Sembilan, Johor, Sabah, Sarawak and Brunei you can use MSM. For Pahang, Kelantan and Terengganu, I think more less they are the same. But for more comprehensive maps for Johor and Singapore you can try Jerome own version map but you need to give a donation.

Thanks for the recommendation bro! But another newbie question....is it possible that we can keep more than 1 map (example both MFM & MSM) in our phone and switch between each other manually when we require it? Since from what I know s/w like Garmin XT loads map with the filename gmapsupp.img. Or can we rename the maps into different names such as gmapsupp.img, gmapsupp_2.img etc and choose which 1 to load later?

Well, there might be a time where I need to change maps...? (Probably) Since Deani_77 said that MFM and MSM each has their own pros so I guess by having 2 maps means having the best of both worlds tongue.gif
