It's not that there's an important bridge connection missing while you try to get out of Northeastern Miami during midnight... and that happened with Garmin. Just for the record.
Well I had this problem just yesterday with Sygic Maps not updated: there were some modifications in the roads so while driving I started "flying" on a green field without knowing where to turn to get to my destination, the voice suddenly muted herself and I had to stop trying to understand the way to get...furthermore the street signals weren't useful as none of them pointed to the town I was going to...
A paper map would be useful in that case and it wouldn't cost 50+$
Maybe in two years someone built a new road and the maps needed an update but Maemo platform is dead...Just for the records
