+one4zorro Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 I have just checked on ebay for PDA GPSr software and this keeps coming up Medion Nav 4.2 GPS Software + All Maps Does anyone have any experience of this software? I have just bought a Dell Axim and would like some form of Route software. Any feedback would be appreciated. Martin Quote Link to comment

davester Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 I've just grabbed this setup for £80 from Medion, and this review talks about the software. http://www.pocketgps.co.uk/medion-review.php Quote Link to comment
+one4zorro Posted February 2, 2005 Author Share Posted February 2, 2005 The Medion software is fraction of the price, so that was why I was interested. Cheers Martin Quote Link to comment

+Turkey Trotter Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 I have the Medion software (V3 & V4.2) and also Tom Tom V3 and I have to say that the Medion maps (for V4.2) are far better (i.e. more up to date). The Tom Tom maps don't have the M6 toll (not even under construction) whereas the Medion V3 has it under construction and the V4.2 has it completed. The POIs (Points Of Interest) are a lot easier to implement on Tom Tom, (Medion requires extra software "PoiWarner" which costs 29euro). Just my £0.02 Quote Link to comment
+Seasider Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 I agree that Tom Tom 3 is well out of date. I moved to my new house here in Lytham in the summer of 2000 and the street ain't included in the database. All you get is part of the link road which joins up with the new development which indicates the database was last updated late 1999/early 2000. Curiously, Memory Map shows three different stages of the building of the development (centred around N 53 45.300 W 2 59.300)... 1:50000 - Shows no development at all - pre 1999 Aerial Map - Shows the development under way - 2000 1:25000 - Shows an almost complete development - 2004 Bizarre!

interpleb Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 Tomtom is the one to go for. Amen to that. The Tomtom maps may be older, but the software is so much more functional and easier to use. Plus the Nav software has a nasty habit of freezing the machine randomly, requiring an often inconvenient reboot. Quote Link to comment
+Learned Gerbil Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 The latest version of TomTom 4 as in the Go and the HP Navigation Pack seems pretty up-to-date. It certainly has all the new roads in SW London and the M6 Toll. Quote Link to comment
