Navigation Systems

[Maximilian]

I am looking to buy an SD card with thai maps from ESRI Thailand for my Garmin Nuevi 660

which I brought over from Europe. Any experience with navigation systems here. Do they

work or will I find myself in Phnom Phenh one day instead of Phrom Pong ?

The maps and directions given on the Garmin sets are pretty good, I got a small Garmin Street thingy in my "Tuner works great.

Lots of discussion already on these set ups.

I have had the Garmin Street pilot for more than a year. Can't get lost with it.

I just purchased a Blue tooth GPD receiver for my Notebook and use the MAPKING software. Works great! Can also use the computer for games and movies for the kid while we drive...

Thats Kool! You would never get lost easily i guess. I was also planning to buy that, in case someone steal my Notebook or i get lost while traveling by taxi with a bad taxi driver.

Wow, those look sweet! Where can I get me one o' those?

p.s. Seems the Garmin website doesn't list Bangkok as an available city?

I bought mine in Pantip Plaza. It comes already loaded with Bangkok and most of Thailand.

I don't get it. What is the advantage to have a bluetooth GPS if someone steals your notebook?

I use Mapking V7 with a PPC, it is ok but I assume the Garmin maps are better. Mapking has often problems in BKK with one way streets.

Greg,

could you try to route Rayong to Hua Hin. The route my Mapking gives out on that particular connection is totally crazy. It ended up with more then 1100km!

There is a dealer in IT Square, Laksi district. Great showroom as well.
