I've noticed that compared to the built in OVI maps it takes much longer to actually find the GPS position - coarse or granular.

I am in the US and have supl.google.com as the network positioning in the devices settings for AGPS and it is enabled.

yes, it should be using AGPS, because this is a function of the N900, not of a specific program.
I've the nokia supl server and it works perfectly. Fix under 5 seconds in my house.

if you have this map files - make dir Maps/ROM paste them there, and make mlm file ROM.mlm and use date from your older version map and remember to paste your license file to Maps folder ;)

I just did. The only thing was that I wrote in the ROM.mlm file just [ROM] like usually did in the oldest version 7.60. And the message in the scren is that no maps are loaded.

In other way. The old Romania maps (the ones working in 7.60) are made by Allview and the ones from 7.71 are made by Navteq. That should be a problem?

has anyone been succesful at downloading the USA version?

on moth my laptop and desktop, the links in the email are blocked.

then when trying the links on my n900, it started downloading. 4.5 hours later, i am only at 47%

i have sent 4 email, with not 1 return by a human, only showing that they "read" the message, and 1 auto-response.

:/

To SygicSupport,
I would just like to publicly thank your company for taking the risk to develop your program for an emerging platform such as this and wish great returns on investment. I have a Garmin nuvi 265WT now, but count me 60% sold on the product.

Now, a question: How do map updates work? How much would each one cost?

Re: Sygic announces world-wide turn-by-turn navigation for Maemo
 
i believe that map updates are included, if i remember reading that on the sygic website.


as for the 60% sold...

i have had to pay fo rthis 2 times, with no support yet, and an inablility to download thier software on 3 different computers and it has been over 5 hours now at only 49% downloading it to my n900 directly.

:/ i have to admit, i was a bit excited. but know for sure they will be refunding one license if not both regardless of thier refund policy.
