[OSM-talk] advice for getting a newer Garmin nüvi car navigation device?

[Johan C]

I agree with Kevin on the future of OSM based navigation devices.
Unfortunately the number of people trying to implement tagging schemes for,
for example, lane assist is limited to 2-3 people. More help on that is
badly needed.

Cheers, Johan
It's so funny
