Coming soon...What does that mean?

Come on, we need rules. can't use "coming soon" if the release is six month away...

Sygic is a offline navigaton system. The maps are stored on your device. So no data transfer.
Maybe in later versions there will be traffic informations. Then you will likely be in need of a data connection, or it will be over TMC.

Re: Sygic announces world-wide turn-by-turn navigation for Maemo

Now that Navicore has just been pulled from underneath my feet, I am in need of a navigation system. Now.

I had intended to use Navicore until Sygic was available but that is no longer an option. If Sygic could let me be a beta tester or buy a pre-release version, they have a guaranteed customer here. Otherwise I will have to buy something else either today or tomorrow.

I hate sounding like a typical whiny ultimatum type post but I also hate the thought of having to go to the like of PCWorld and buying a TomTom :(

you are able to deactivate agps. so if it costs too much for him, he can disable it.

It costs $50 more for the Barack Obama Hope and Change Special Edition. It has special features that are priceless and WELL worth the additional $50. Foremost amongst these are that you can get to anywhere you want to go by turning Hard LEFT at every intersection!
