Yup your seller right.. the our papago latest map was 15 April..
viewtopic.php?p=42702#p42702

currently our senior mapper still in hardwork to create more better map :D

the fast update our garmin map at every weeks is fixed for new rural area & poi only..
not for major road that had covered...
& don't worry, you still not lost with our latest April map.. :-'

but, if you find some error of our map in your local area or find some new road
that had not covered yet.. then you can contribute your tracklog here..

Hi all the sifus in MFM, I am a newbie member.
Have lot to learn from you GURUS!

I just bought a Garmin Nuvi 1250 and found that the original map in my home town, BM is full of errors, if not life-threatening.(this morning, my Garmin Nuvi 1250 had led me to a dead-end that is leading to a rail-track in Berapit, BM.) :thumbsdown:

Plan to trash the silly Garmin maps in my 1250 and update to Malfreemaps.

Hope to contribute like you guys.
Keep up the marvellous job! :champ: :rox: :good:
