Hi,
I use the OSM maps. Today I searched for an address that definitely exists. However, the "Google" search delivered no results. I found the address then via the POI search (luckily it was in the list) and later, when back home, tried the search in Google maps. There the address (written in the same manner as I put it into the search field in the Navigator) was found immediately. So what's about the "Google" search?
I often find that it is very restrictive in terms of spelling etc., while in Google maps you get close matches delivered if the spelling doesn't match. It doesn't seem correct to call it "GOOGLE". Is this so in order to convince users to change to non-free TomTom maps?
