[Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
I've uploaded my video-preview about Sygic Mobile Maps 10.
Please have in mind, that it is still in beta-stage and not available to customers, yet.
It will be available as a free upgrade for Sygic Mobile Maps 9 customers.

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the preview! It's great to know this isn't just talk anymore :)

The Internet features look great and I'm curious if the speedcam alerts work in the US.

Also enjoyed the use of the word automagically :)

Thanks for the preview.

What;s the ETA on this? Also, wasn't AURA coming to N900 also?

SMM10: normal soon (it's nearly finished, testing and ironing out the bugs, prepare everything)

Aura is coming, too. Nokia soon. :D:D (I don't have my test version, yet.)

Re: [Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
Do note that you will have to buy Aura. (and no I am not a spokesperson from Sygic)

BTW will the maps be updated? Noticed how some roads are missing, but then again so did Google so I guess it's been awhile.

Re: [Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
Tell me please, the users who purchased the OVI Store version is also can update to Mobile Maps 10 ?
Thanks

zehjotkah 2010-06-01 22:08

Re: [Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
yes, the upgrade is for both Ovi store users and Sygic online shop users. try to serve both at the same time.

and yes, of course you will have to pay for Aura. it is a totally different application, targeted more at social networking and not navigation.

edit: forgot: maps will be updated for free, but it is also possible to use smm9 maps.

jer006 2010-06-01 22:14

Re: [Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
I saw in the past that anyone who purchased mobile maps 9 will get
version 10 for free, is this still the case?

Also how will the update be delivered, will it be via the sygic repository setup or a download from the website? (or is it too soon for this information)

Looks great, cannot wait as mobile maps 9 is a great product already!

Did you even read the very first post on this thread by zehjotkah? :p

Re: [Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
Will you guys a version for meego?
Even if nokia does release ovi maps for free there might be enough hardware manufactures that release meego phones/tablets that there will be a demand for it.

zehjotkah 2010-06-02 05:01

Re: [Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
too early to talk about that, but take a guess. it was released for maemo 5 which does have a by far minor coverage than meego will have.

finally there's kinetic scrolling through the menu! no more hitting arrow buttons! thanks for the video

btw can we search for business names now?

Re: [Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
But please, please and please with sugar on top: tweak the application to stop the lag or minimize it. Sygic consistently lags behind the actual position on all platforms I have seen it on: Symbian, WinCE and Maemo.

No point in having great looking UIs or rendered maps if the main point of the application - tell you were you are accurately - is compromised.

...and for those having the temptation to say "works fine for me" rest assured that I have seen PLENTY of devices from my friends and not only before making this statement.

Re: [Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
very accurate for me

zehjotkah 2010-06-02 06:35

Re: [Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
@jaco2k: have you already tried to mod it?
for some the accuracy was perfect after modding.

In what way can you "mod" it to make it more accurate?

First post at the end, there are some links, also to increase the accuracy (decrease lags).

Yes, for Maemo it improves when you mod it, but it still hiccups/lags a bit.

In my opinion there is something up with the rendering algorithm code (across all platforms) that we are trying to compensate with the tweaks/mods.

Wouldn't it be better for Sygic's awareness to be raised and the chance to make changes to the rendering code to be made? ;)

Obviously there is a bit of rethorics here because it is too late for such type of changes to make to Mobile Maps 10 but Aura... maybe there is still hope... :)

And those who say "perfect" have to look a bit around (not elegant from me to talk about competitor names...) to see what perfect looks like.

With the mods, it minimizes the problem and makes it... usable. But it still lags.

...have to take a look with my external bluetooth (Holux) and see if it improves the accuracy in any way but as I said, the problem is not in the positioning but likely in the rendering

Thanks a lot... it works...

I can't wait tell i have it..:)

Thanks again

zehjotkah 2010-06-02 08:04

Re: [Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
this is really strange, because for some it works and for others not.
for me it works perfectly without having to mod anything. no lags, nothing. but I don't have random reboots, dead pixels, a loose usb port or any other flaws either.
a friend of mine is experiencing lags all the time. it got way better after modding. also he had random reboots before pr1.1 and so on...

don't know why...

Re: [Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
Looks promising. I really consider to switch away from my standalone navigator to sygic mobile maps 10 after it is released. Aura looks interesting as well.

I read somewhere about TomTom on the Sharp Zaurus, ripped from a TomTom device (they're running on Linux).
So theoratically it should run on the NITs, too.
Maybe this would be a project for you?
But please in another thread ;)

Re: [Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
could anyone please check if SMM10 shows up in the program manager now (Sygic repository).
Someone told me it is showing up now, but I haven't heard anything from Sygic.
Since I have that version already, I can't check..
Thanks!

Yup...saw mobile-maps-10 it at the respository..but unable to install due to conflicting application packages????

:Let me uninstall the old version 9 and reinstall the 10...will report back.

eiraku 2010-07-20 17:33

Re: [Preview] Sygic Mobile Maps 10
 
Hmm, no updates here. Is it supposed to be a new, installable app or an update to begin with?

yes, SMM9 have to be uninstalled first as far as I remember...
and can you tell if it is an update or a new program, I think it was a new program since the name changed, too...

thanks for your effort.
I guess there was a mistake or a test made at Sygic.
Otherwise they would've noticed me...
Thanks again!

It's like they left a Mobile Map 10 proto in a bar, or something...
