:-k :-k
Garmin City Navigator - Mapped by Garmin and Compile by Garmin
Malsingmap - Mapped by GPS user and Compile by Malsing
Malfreemap - Mapped by GPS user and Compile by Malfreemap

Maps are the same from Point A to B, but because of the difference compiler.. the routing can be difference, some give you longer route.
And detail are difference between the three.

It all depend on which one you like most.

Hello everyone..

I'm new here.. need all sifu guide regarding gps..
40 year old newbie, stay in Shah Alam, married but still available... :P

Last time use Garmin Que in Dapod 838 Pro, then upgrade to Garmin XT on Asus PDA... and now using Garmin XT on Omnia 2...

A bit dissappointed navigate with Garmin XT on Omnia 2, It was a delay on screen ...when I reached a junction, the screen still not.. may be cause the Omnia 2 screen size..
