Their website is still not finished, but they are available. I have seen them on sale for £379, but if you pay that for a Mio168 worth about £100, then you are soft in the head.

Thats the one. TerraNav, not TerraMap like I mistakenly wrote before I think they are trying to take advantage that they are the only one who have maps now and screw us on the price though

I'm half tempted to buy one and start flogging the software to recoup the ridiculous price.

In the news today about a new company that offers GPS in Cyprus but it seems mostly about companies that want to track their vehicles : www.trackandtalk.com http://www.cyprus-mail.com/news/main.php?id=31871

Some info on maping for cyprus, so maybe a tomtom will now work, Garmin does...

GPS / sat nav cyprus, well it seems to be here and working in very good tried and truseted format, including postcode and door number entries / search. It speaks in either Greek or English giving turn by turn directions.

The system i have seem working was on a Garmin NUVI 760, but I'am assured that it should or will work with any system (if not most) that use an SD card for extra mapping.

This means it will work with the Kenwood car stereos using the SD card slot, (should get to see this working wednesday this week, fingers crossed)

So how much, 150euro for the mapping on a card, so yes you will need the GPS divece on top of that, these can be purchased on ebay for around £100 sterring. so for around 275 euro your up and running.

So where is this on offer,
right here in cyprus,
Limasoul in fact and they can also supply the GPS units, not sure on his prices,
but a very helpful guy called Evgenios Petrides,
at C A Petrides ltd
contacts for him are ;

please tell him paul gave you the details, Thanks

I have Pocket Navigator with a "tweaked" version of Cyprus maps so any Windows mobile device will play them
Also Navigator 7 has Cyprus maps but not so detailed ..

I've got Pocket Navigator 6 & 7, but 7 won't work on my Kasier. I've moved to Destinator 7 now which is shit as well, but works. Shame you can't get a Tomtom map for Cyprus. I use Memory Map more than any other in Cyprus.

Why would anyone need a GPS in Cyprus, when a good local maps will do the job. Is not as if you are going to get lost or something. Sooner or later, you will either end up on the coast or the Green Line, that's if you don't have any sense of direction at all.

[murf62]

You try geocaching without one.

There's a difference between a GPS and Sat Nav.

I find a GPS handy but to be honest can't see any use for sat nav in Cyprus

I only use the "Sat Nav" for finding addresses in the larger towns, apart from that it's pretty useless.
