Thread: Legal - Licensed - Fully Functional iGO

Agree, jtrosky, but WinCE? For how long?
New devices coming out? I don't think so.
As for NavNGO, as long as they make maps that work on WinCE IGO/Primo, nothing wrong with WinCE.
The moment NavNGo start making R4 or R5 maps only to be used with the newest IGO Android builds (like they did in the past with the R3 maps for IGO 8.3), IGO8 and Primo for WinCE will die by itself (as IGO 8.0 did).
Future wil tell.

2. Garmin and TT makes money from "faithful" users which feel that their units are the best and nothing else. The "fan boy" mentality. Those people will stick with them regardless of their actions.

True. But maybe not looking to reality and innovation. PNA's are out, smartphones are in and (almost) everyone has one, thus a GPS in his pocket. Then why keep on buying a new PNA? For keep on dying hard? Hmmm. Like elderly people keep watching black and white musicals with Fred Astaire that are colored in these days.

A.o. Waze, Here-we-go, Osmand, Mapsme, ... all getting better, are legal and free.
