Yes, the Night mode displayed both MFM polygons and icons correctly, but sadly the Day mode still does not display MFM polygons.

u can use off line. but if you have not got a locked gps position, the default position is far away from malaysia. download the basemap to easily locate malaysia. all maps must be placed under garminmobilepc folder
from Garmin Que for Pocket PC to Garmin Mobile XT for Windows Mobile to Nuvi 205W to Papago M9 for Android & now Garmin Nuvi 2576.

Yes, if you'd purchased the software. However, you need to run a utility in N95 to simulate a BT GPS receiver.

1. Purchase GMPC so that you may pair it with a BT GPS receiver.
2. Use a utility like Symarctic ExtGPS to allow your N95 to act as a BT GPS receiver to pair with GMPC.
