Guest theidoctor.org Posted April 14, 2009 Report Posted April 14, 2009 Just wanted to get everyone else's inputs on these... So far mine is the Garmin and the IGO 8, but i would like to keep testing others out.
Guest meabigbaldguy Posted April 14, 2009 Report Posted April 14, 2009 You probably mean well with this thread, but this is probably the millionth thread on this very same topic posted within the last couple of months. By the way, you forgot to include Copilot Live 7 in your list.
Guest mnegutu Posted April 14, 2009 Report Posted April 14, 2009 iGO 8! Very good interface imo and easy to use. And it has the most precise maps at least for Romania. I've also tested this in Bulgaria and Turkey and it was great .
Guest yojoe600 Posted April 14, 2009 Report Posted April 14, 2009 i liked some features of garmin but it was far too slow so i use iGo8 now and love it
Guest maf107ezk0 Posted April 14, 2009 Report Posted April 14, 2009 For me definately iGO because it has the best maps and works fastest and without any known bugs for me :excl:
Guest MrJoneswii Posted April 14, 2009 Report Posted April 14, 2009 McGuider 2009 for me. Igo 8 for sure, although I didn't try any other
Guest theidoctor.org Posted April 15, 2009 Report Posted April 15, 2009 Igo 8 for sure, although I didn't try any other now that i added more poi's, its igo

Guest GodsGift Posted April 15, 2009 Report Posted April 15, 2009 Was Garmin XT and IGO8 and preferred Garmin XT But just got a bigger memory card and Garmin XT wont work no more ... very sad. So IGO all the way! (geddit) GG

Guest Chugworth Posted April 15, 2009 Report Posted April 15, 2009 On my phone, Google Maps. It's small and simple. For serious navigation, I'd use my Garmin Nüvi, and not my phone.
Guest Omega Ra Posted April 15, 2009 Report Posted April 15, 2009 now that i added more poi's, its igo triple post FTW! lol anyway, PM me with where you got the poi for IGO...did you use those magellan ones? What about maps?
Guest theidoctor.org Posted April 15, 2009 Report Posted April 15, 2009 triple post FTW! lol anyway, PM me with where you got the poi for IGO...did you use those magellan ones? What about maps? lol... yea i keep going back and forth!!!!!...
Guest Quang05BlkBoxsterS n Omnia Posted April 15, 2009 Report Posted April 15, 2009 LOL Igo reminded me of the infamous piece of crap YUGO and where the hell are they now?
Guest Are these my pants? Posted April 16, 2009 Report Posted April 16, 2009 Quick question. Does iGo need to be installed on a separate SD card, or can it be installed to the main memory?
Guest meabigbaldguy Posted April 16, 2009 Report Posted April 16, 2009 Copilot Live 7 can be downloaded directly from the Handango UK website to your PC, and then transferred directly to your device HD, or SD card. This is what sold me! As far as I knew, Garmin, Tom Tom, and IGO, all had to be purchased on a separate card. Anyway, Copilot is also a good program. Maps are good and easily upgradeable. Interface is friendly, easy to use. Colors are nice! And... it was cheaper than the rest! Setup was also a snap! Anyone considering a Navi purchase should give this one a looksie.
Guest dslayton Posted April 16, 2009 Report Posted April 16, 2009 Does any have POI's for United States for IGO 8? Any help would be appreciated.
Guest Quang05BlkBoxsterS n Omnia Posted April 16, 2009 Report Posted April 16, 2009 Average lock time for me is almost always less 15secs whether it is cold start, reset, not using GPS for the whole week, miles away from previous locked spot, rainy or sunny outdoor, stand still or moving fast at 90mph between So and Nor California, beat that :excl: .
Guest theidoctor.org Posted April 16, 2009 Report Posted April 16, 2009 Average lock time for me is almost always less 15secs whether it is cold start, reset, not using GPS for the whole week, miles away from previous locked spot, rainy or sunny outdoor, stand still or moving fast at 90mph between So and Nor California, beat that :excl: . and how did you get that to happen?
Guest thericksonebay Posted April 16, 2009 Report Posted April 16, 2009 you can get poi for igo off btjunkie.com or any torrent sites usually have them
Guest meabigbaldguy Posted April 16, 2009 Report Posted April 16, 2009 Average lock time for me is almost always less 15secs whether it is cold start, reset, not using GPS for the whole week, miles away from previous locked spot, rainy or sunny outdoor, stand still or moving fast at 90mph between So and Nor California, beat that :excl: . miles away is one thing, but I could literally be in the next hemisphere within 48 hours. Lock time for me is quick, but will still take a little bit longer than normal because of access to a completely different set of satellites. There's a big difference when the last known position is several time zones away from the new location.
