Bluetooth GPS solutions in Asia?

[+Kardboard+]

Heading off to Asia in a few days, and I've been searching around for a Bluetooth GPS map solution for the region, but I've found nothing? TomTom only works for Western Europe and North America, and Mapopolis is only good for North America. Are there any map programs with Bluetooth GPS support that work for Asia, namely Hong Kong and Tokyo?

Hi,
TomTom does HongKong if that helps a little. http://www.tomtom.com/plus/service.php?ID=10&SID=4

Also try searching for mapking, my computer won't load it today :-( I think it might just be for PPC but have a look.

Wow, totally did not see that TomTom had it before...and yeah, MapKing only works for PocketPCs.

TomTom should be able to take care of Hong Kong from what I understand. The Tele Atlas maps are good and should cover you there.

hey take a look at www.nav4all.com. It is free gps software and it make use of ya mobile phone. And the device you need for it is below $100, so really cheap in comparison with other gps suppliers. I am using it and it is really good and it covers hong kong and tokyo
