Just bring along a MfM map in a micro/SD to test if it can support our map. My Taiwan 205W works very well with any maps... I think if it is Garmin it will work... Dump the local agents for making our local sets so expensive... @<RM400.00 it is a steal !!!.... Shame on you Aeco... :thumbsdown:

Can help me buy one?... cheers!

Last year I bought my Nuvi 765 from Taiwan. Running fine so far on MFM from day 1 to today.

Warranty is international, anyway for your info, regardless of where you are in Asia, Taiwan is central service centre hub.
