Map of Malaysia DVD for Navigation system

[scin]

Does anyone out there know if it's possible to obtain and install the GPS map for Malaysia into the Navigation system...If so, where would this be available?Seems like such a waste to not be able to use this feature.

Dear scin,

It was advertised in the Sunday TImes that there is a company providing full satnav service. You could contact them for the possibility of obtaining a map from them. THey have maps for JB and Spore as well.

dnhoh

Tak ade GPS and yes the map is from virtualmalaysia.com with Mapopolis Ver 3 on my O2 with road maps for Ipon, JB, KL, KT, Kuantan, Melaka and Seremban.

yer usin XDA I or II?

cos if yer usin the former, then Emtec Bluetooth GPS is compatible wiv it, armed wiv mapopolis, it can b an interactive navigator

Thanks guys.... those maps you have mentioned have been around..... the problem is, I am not intending to use it on a handheld device. I need it on a DVD format to upload into the BMW Navigation system....

Therein lies the problem!

I doubt if the Pocket PC maps will work....

There must be a specific format of map that's on the DVD.

scin : well dude, eres the bad news. as far as im concerned, NOPE, theres no msia map fer dat purpose of in-car navigation yet to b produced tho rumour has it dat some companies r keen to undertake the tasks (Rinman?)..

I used to be able to get KL street maps from streetmap.com and streetmap.com.sg. But now the the URL shows only Singapore street maps. If you click streemap.com.my you will get rinman and the online maps dont work.

Thanks guys!
I guessed as much.... just hoping someone out there might know something more!.....

DRAT!

DVD of maps of malaysia and states coming out soon for car navigation system MOU just signed. Full roll out of hardware and software soon.
Nobody dare venture into this business as it involves very high capital outlay until now, a joint venture with Japs and 2 of our Bigtimers.
Everything should be out by 1st quarter of 2006.
