Are the Garmin Nuvi series available sa pinas?

Can the lowest model (nuvi 200 ata) handle the philippine roadmap?

Loaded the latest map of carlos into my garmin nuvi 350. Currently using it here in Manila. Works great.

I have a TOM TOM which has a SD card slot, if I were to download a Philippine map from http://mapcenter2.cgpsmapper.com, will it work? or are these just for Garwin units?

AFAIK pwede ka namang mag-install at mag-browse ng Philippine map basta kasya pa sa memory card mo. Hindi ka nga lang ituturo ng GPS sa Pinas kasi wala ka naman duon.

Magkano ang kuha mo sa Nuvi 310? Malaki na ang ibinagsak ng presyo ng mga satnav's dito sa UK. Presyong-ginto dati ... ngayon makakakuha ka pa ng "libre", tulad ng kapag bumili ka ng post-paid cellphone.

For Garmin's only.

You are more then welcome to start working on above mentioned poi's, send them to us at ph.roadguide * gmail . com and we'll update the maps with them.

address search is not working on the newer garmin units (yet). hopefully the new compatible compiler will be released shortly and should take care of that problem. In the meantime, i made another map which allows you to search streets as a poi. (map to be released soon, still testing it).
