u are right, ment about 2 gb. works really great. am i the only one here who tested it?



I have on the E50 and N70.
The problem is with the driving speed, it doesnt give you enough time to make the turn, its about 10 - 15 m away when it tells you to take the turn.
The lady only tells you once when you need to make the turn but worst for me was the sound comes out of the phones speaker, so if you didnt hear her the first time and you miss the turn u stuffed, you have to change and edit to sertup a new route!
If your car has a sunroof, you gonna miss a few turns lol!!

Thats the E50 not the best for GPS. Esp with that tiny screen.

The N70 coupled with the Garmin made GPS works a little better but I hate the fact that if you miss a turn it does not recalculate a new route!!!

Theres still alot of room for improvement imo.

i didnt have the chance to test the voice navy yet, but as i was told, its actually not a bad navy system, even its not a tomtom or igo. for fun its ok imo.

@786 did u set the voice guidance in maps?

does anybody know where the city data from the smart2go are saved to when downloaded from the web for the n95? I check my memory card , but it shows a blank and can't seem to find any trace of it on the phone or memorycard.

does anybody have the same problem as me?

its very strange and very fustrating as you don't know if the info has been loaded onto your phone or not. The mem card just shows a blank!!!!!! but if you remove the mem card from the n95 , the gps program doesn't work properly so the info must be saved somewhere on the card.

also, can you check the city info from another country, while ur still stationed in the home country?

smart2go aren't very specfic to inform us where the info is saved to.

imo the city and country infos are usually updated, cos u have to download the maps again and again, so in the main server they make upgrades.
