Raul, Fantastic podcast! Thanks very much. The multiple examples were very helpful. I liked that you put an address 120 John, and it found 121 John. Very reassuring.
When I recently bought Navigon USA, it offered West, Central, and East. I bought Central as that's where I live. How do I get the other maps without buying other apps? I'm glad to pay for the other maps, but hope it can all be within one Navigoan app. Best, Keith -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Raul A.
