I'm using mapking on my palm treo. It's called mapking. What do u think? [:/][laugh]

 

It's using SLA(SG Land Authority) maps so it's 99% accurate. Updates can be downloaded from here http://www.mapking.com.sg/maps.php. Just cut and paste. If u dunno where to cut & paste. Search in your phone with the file extension *.m7a

 

Anyway *.g10 and *.m7a files can be shared. Just by changing the file extension. MK2007 is *.m7a, MK G10 is *.g10

 

Cons will be the same as other navigation software whereby there's no built-in A.I. U need to tell it what to do dan it'll show u the directions. But if u happen to take the wrong turn, it'll re-route within 2~3secs.

 

One other thing that most ppl find it no good is the ERP gantry location, whereby u have to key it in manually(POI) and the routing does not avoid them unless u manually select the roads(with ERP) u wanna avoid.

But it does have warnings about static speed cam locations and possible mobile cam locations.

 

Always use the 3D navigation. 2D u cannot see the split roads at some junctions.
