  • I really like Navigator 11 free, but it's not really practical to use it on a laptop in a car.  So, I'm thinking of getting an 8'' tablet PC.  But they all seem to run on Android and Navigator 11 doesn't.  It says it will soon, but when?

  • Android version will be release next month, you will need Android 2.3 or higher
  • There are some tablets with Windows 7, and Windows 8 from mid of 2012. But they are more expensive for the time being.
    I think that the format 8.9" is the most suitable in a car and should be a standard in the future with 7" (in a big pocket !) and 10.1" (at home).
    You can find old tablets with Windows CE or XP at a low price, and they should be compatible with Navigator. 11. But the screen is not very sensitive.

  • Thank you Tomas.  I will wait for the release before buying an Android 8'' tablet with Android 2.3.  Thanks also to Louis.  I am not a great fan of Windows, now that Android/Ubuntu is around for free.  Why make billionaires richer.
  • Why Android 2.3  - won't that be locking out a large number of potential users and customers ?  Android 2.2 is the version with the highest uptake to date according to Google stats.
  • There is a porting problem in Android 2.2 related to wchar_t support, which has been added in version 2.3. Note, that there is updated (more promissing) statistic :

  • Hi Martin (mdx),



    I am a big fan of Navigator Free and I use it since v. 10 on windows CE.
    I'm too a OpenStreet member, and see all my contributions working fine at every map update.
    I very interested to test the Android-Port of Navigator, too.
    If you need someone to translate Navigator Free to BRAZILIAN Portuguese (pt-br) , contact me.

    Best Regards,

    Helio

  • you can sign me up as betatester as well: I learned how to value this program and OSM during a recent trip in India where it showed me the route without fail on a Windows Mobile phone. However, since that trip I switched to a Samsung phone with Android 2.3 and now I have no navigator 11 to work with...
  • I also can be a beta tester. I have HTC Hero (android 2.1) and Sony Ericsson Arc S (android 2.3).
  • Is it still possible to become a beta tester? I have a Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.0.3 (CM9 with franco.Kernel).
  • I would like to be a tester, too. I'm running CM7.1 on a Nexus One.
    Thanks in advance!

Howdy, Stranger!
