What do you suggest to me? To wait or to buy now? Do you know how expensive the upgrade will be?

If you had read any of this thread you would have learnt that 10 is a free upgrade for all 9 users :D

So no excuse not to but :D

I don't know, using 10 on Symbian instead of 9 gives me headaches, 9 is more uuhm... I dare to call it refined.
While 10 is new it lacks the refinement 9 had. 9 got polished over the years, for my taste, 10 is still too new. So I'm somewhat looking forward to 10 but I'm perfectly ok with 9 running nicely here and I'm not to tense about 10 not yet being released. Anyone with me? Guys, 9 offers no real drawbacks on regards to 10 so grab a Martini and chill by the pool.

If you don't want 9 and have to have 10, I would wait for 10 to come out. Just to make sure it makes it to market.

Supposedly 10 is a free upgrade for owners of 9.

yes, SMM10 is/will be a free upgrade for SMM9 customers.
SMM10 is more polished and does not have any drawbacks.
Important new features are
- navigating directly to a contact by clicking on them (imported addressbook to Sygic)
- speedcams over internet
- traffic over internet
- weather over internet
- swipe to scroll instead of having to click a button
- map data will be upgraded for free as well, but it is also possible to use the old maps

I've also released a video about SMM10, check my signature to head over to my youtube channel.

I really hope that MM10 will finally fix the awfully slow and buggy position updating and the totally ridiculous "pedestrian route" routing that asks me to cross roundabouts and whatnot...

Suggestions for update:

- Instead of choosing avoid next # of yards. Make it so you can avoid a certain road. If 495 is backed up, I don't want to figure out how many yards or whatever measurement far it is I want to avoid.

- Allow pasting of addresses into Sygic
