I would like to say many thanks to contributor for splendid maps in Penang Island..I was there last sunday heading towards teluk bahang for sea picnic..unfortunately i had missed familiar route after tesco bukit gelugor and had to rely on Garmin Mobile XT since i am not familiar with George Town roads...at no times it had re-route me to correct route..

thanks again...

by the way, why is my GPS automatically show large scale maps view instead of small scale maps ? Did i screwed out the setting ?

hello guys... mfm newbie here...
i was wondering, am doing an apps on nokia smartphone platform..
the apps is a pretty much like a 'garmin' for food premises only..
right now i'm on beta stage where i focus on KL n selangor food premises first.. which is quite alot i guess..

here are the question, how could i get the latitude n longitude data from the mfm maps.. my apps will be using google maps system is basemap n nav system, hence i need the lat n long data for each the food premises...

thanks.

Hi I'm new GPS user.
I'm using Papago OS
I encounter this prob whereby, sometim.es the instructions given can be confusing, e.g.
1) Instructions is: "Keep left and exit expressway"
but map shows a split road, arrow directing to right side of the split.

2) Instruction is: "Turn Left in the next junction"
but actually should turn right.
In the 2nd example - is the instruction wrong or I was driving faster than the instruction?
