 |
|
I have been waiting for years for some mapping for the old Jugoslav Fed states and note from MikeB's post on the launch of Easy PocketNAV's OnCourse Navigator 6, that at last TeleAtlas have produced maps (Jan 2007) of most of those countries with street mapping down to about 50% of most countries.
How long will it take for Navman to produce the maps for their products  
Or, do I have to go out and buy a PDA and buy the OnCourse Navigator 6 and simply pop in a SD card and with seconds only for it all to load - no Desktop and no MS Synch and no registration and regular Upgrades ....some of them free. Is that the future for GPS
Anyone want to buy a N20 (Just joking...at the moment)

Yes, if you look at the new Balkan maps, the maximum street level coverage is about 50%. But, if you know the countries like I do, that is no real hardship as the major towns are the populated areas where you need the street level mapping and the countryside outside of the urban areas has sparce population and not so necessary to need the street level maps. (If that makes sense  )

Good suggestion  The bottom line is where do I get all the cash. Oh well, back to the paper map.

I would think the next set of map updates from Navman would be end of 2007. I'm hoping Navman will have a new model out by then and include Eastern European maps with the device like Tom Tom or Garmin do with some of them.
