QUOTE(coldfission @ Dec 23 2008, 03:09 PM) some ppl prefer to use garmin because it can provide so call "free" voice navigation. of coz it's done via hacking the software. Meanwhile the nokia map is preinstalled in ur hp. Sometimes i feel that nokia map is smoother when it draws the map. Garmin is slightly lag in my n79. i not sure this happen to n85 or not. Anyway, u can have both garmin and nokia on ur device so u can try it up.. IMHO, i prefer garmin because it comes in handy when i wanna searh a place. i think garmin has more up to date maps...with lots of POI...got some website did update the map every week...just need to download and paste it into your phone... can refer to this page@coldfission maybe u need to try diff version of garmin...see lagging or not...

Garmin is slow on the redraw because unlike Nokia Maps, its a freaking huge 40+mb file (if you got the gold version 2.30) for the maps alone compared to 13+mb for Nokia Maps.
Why you will think Garmin is better is cos it will show you landmarks for 7eleven, police station etc etc. Its also slightly better in terms that it rotate the screen according to your direction which can be useful when driving. Map wise, some area Nokia is more up to date and for some Garmin is more up to date.
