Above all, the fact that the maps are not stored locally on the phone does in fact have an advantage - the map is ALWAYS up-to-date, as the company who maintain the map, only have to change small parts of it each time a change has to be made, and this change is then "delivered" to the user only when he specifically uses the area with the changes, so no need to make sure your map is always updated - as its always updated by default.
Sounds good.
Where is the traffic alerts derived from? How detailed are they?
For example in waze you will get a route avoiding the most inner streets in tel-aviv because of traffic.
Does that exist in telmap too?
