QUOTE(alexnek @ Nov 1 2009, 07:42 PM) I've purchased TomTom MY for my iPhone 3GS and straight went for two days stress test including during rainy day. Pls note I tried it on KL, Subang, PJ, and cheras roads only. By far maps are updated, and most impressed me is the GPS locking and route recalculate. In fact, I don't realise during recalculating should you reroute to alternative road, it happens so fast in split second. Navigation voice is fantastic, tried Cantonese, English US, UK, Mandarin, B Melayu and Hakka Wat about all the POIs in KL and Klang Valley? Is it updated?Navigation voice is loud, clear and adjustable too. Expect full features including toll charge road, POI, etc. Before this, I've tried garmin on malsingmap, papago and tomtom on Nokia phones too. So I think it's fair to rate this app 4/5. Ask me anything should you need more info   |

Why the size of the Sygic is 235mb whereas Tom Tom is only less than 100mb? What are the different? Some said they are using the same map but why the size of so much different? Does this mean the Sygic has more map or POI than TomTom? THanks

That is why i've refrained from getting tomtom..
For sure, it's cheaper than Sygic.. but according to their descriptions, maps for Malaysia are only 54% complete.. I wonder thought, if people with JB'd phones can modify the maps/poi themselves.. or import it from elsewhere |

But I thought Sygic and TomTom are using the same map so there is no different between these two.

QUOTE(tnsai @ Oct 29 2009, 03:10 PM) I'm pretty sure you don't need the car kit.. the car kit just boosts the GPS signal etc(or rather provides its own GPS receiver)..or provides it for IPoTs et So, mind to share what car kit that you all using right now???c I'm try looking those can stick on windscreen and chargeable. Any better advices? |

Hi,
Just a question regarding Sygic South East Asia in Apps Store, it says the apps contain maps for Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and Brunei. I just want to confirm is it true that it contains all these countries? So I can use the GPS in Thailand and Indonesia as well. I asked it is because other GPS apps only have Malaysia and Singapore. Please confirm. Thanks |
