Have you ever used the Blackberry map? I think you will end up more deep into the puzzle – and you will lost. The best thing about my old Eten PDA is we can configured free maps updates and it has a sounds too. Talk about GPS map on mobile, we can say Garmin is the thing. So I just to show a bitter smile when my friends arrives in time at the location with their old Nokia with Garmin.
While I’m scouting the Internet searching for free usable map at least like Garmin on the Blackberry storm, actually Garmin have a setting for Blackberry GPS with or without built it GPS. You can find it here.
By 5 reason write the tech republic. Although Blackberry exist earlier than iPhone and the droids. For average consumers here in Malaysia only realizes what is actually a blackberry maybe around a year ago. Before that one year, we don’t take blackberry into consideration when buying a mobile phone. Now I see more Blackberry than iPhone here. Many boss are using it. I don’t know if they are following trend or really know and like to use it. When the bosses are using it, it inspired the lower level to also used it .
