I downloaded the Expo Guide to use with my Venus China map.
While the Venus maps worked fine in my Mal/SG 1250, the Expo Guide does not!

Please be aware that the Expo Guide only works with a true China GPS.
On mine, it claims I am in the Spanish pavilion when I am standing on the rooftop garden of the Singapore pavilion!

Be warned!
