bro,

m3gps is offering RM799.00 for 255w,
as for Aeco is offering RM850.

i also thinking of buying..any bros here got suggestion which is better? aeco claim they are the only authorised distributor..but m3gps cheaper by rm50...can do a lot of things wt rm50!!..

already make up my mind to buy Garmin instead of papago..as if i can use garmin overseas liked in USA..

but wonder the card can enough to keep for all the countries map meh??

Hello MFMers,

Thanks for having this forum. Just installed GarminXT, love it and my friends are also excited when they see it.

Just wanna say hello and good day to everyone. :) .

Need to spend some time to explore how to add in some routes, etc ? How about places in Thailand and Vietnam or even Philippines ?

cheers,
rodamas
