I was only trying to be as objective as possible, given the fact that i'm a member of the navit project :) But i do agree, having the maps on my uSD card has a big advantage, should it be when i go to belgium (GPRS would cost me an eye abroad) or when in a area with poor signal strenght. And i'm not talking of the turn by turn instructions. On the other hand, Markus gave us a very nice piece of software, kudos to him! > On 1/8/10, KaZeR<ka...@altern.org> wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> Le 08/01/2010 09:31, dehqan65 a écrit : >> >> >>> 2 - In which issues Tangogps is better than Navit ? >>> >> IMO, they both serve different purposes. >> >> Tango use raster maps.
