Well... thats what i was kinda leading up to, pocket streets always gave me dead on accurate turns and such with detailed data like restops, eats, stuff like that... what we have now is great... but as long as it's usable does it matter if it's vector based or not? Many times I'd load up a streets and trips map on my PPC and it always got me where I was going... with detailed street info... it didn't tell you when to turn or anything but it was really easy to track... You could enter searches for streets and a few other cool things... other apps that work similarly do give turns... like pharos... granted this is all for windows based handhelds and such but if they are using bitmaps couldn't the same be done for empeg?
