I took your advice religously & seriously; for almost an eternity, I refused to even take a look at the 3790.
And then hor....... I went to Perfect Watch and played with it.
& then hor ....... I bought it after 3 minutes!!!
Came with the traffic thingy.

After that, I told myself that since I shall be using this unit mostly for travelling, I shall be using the standard Garmin NT maps. Hahaha! The old 360 is still chugging along in my car.

Cheers.


Hi bro coolerbok,

Haha poison by the 3790T :mrgreen:
Discounting the non ability to use 3rd party maps :thumbsdown: , the 3790T is a pleasure to use with its razor sharp graphics, topo display, full screen, beautiful form-factor. :thumbsup:
Same as you, my 765 still cannot retire :mrgreen:

Bro rohiza23, I check my 3790T and concur with your reporting of MFM map showing all roads / POI in Ipoh :thumbsup:

However this is not the case with some cities in Malaysia / Singapore.

Can you verify your set and look and see if all roads / POIs shows on your set for the below mentioned cities ?

With firmware 2.30, I check some major cities from South to North of Mal-Sin Peninsula. Some cities OK while others are not showing roads. I am on MFM 101108.
Penang : :thumbsup:
Ipoh : :thumbsup:
KL : :thumbsdown:
Melaka : :thumbsup:
JB : :thumbsdown:
Singapore : :thumbsdown:

Maybe this gives some clues to Mappers to analyze for a solution
