I have 3 navigation system in my HTC Touch HD and it works great in high resolution (480 x 800).

The HTC Touch HD and the X1 is similar so all 3 navagation systems should work for you.

I have:

1. iGO 8
2. Navigon
3. Garmin XT

It is great to have 3 perfectly functioning GPS system in one phone. They also do TTS also (Text to Speech).

I am going to try the TomTom in the near future to make it 4 navigation system.

However, like CyberGuy am going to test TomTom version 7 when it´s in the store. I think TomTom have more functions then WayFinder.

Garmin XT is the best out of the 3. Garmin capture satellites very easily.

Is there anywhere where you can buy a legit version on a CD, I hate the must use our 2GB microSD card rubbish, if they are going to do that then they should give us a set of memory card options!

Default Garmin XT
Garmin XT comes preloaded on a 2gb micro sd card, can I copy all the info on this card to my 8gb card I have in Xperia.

@norseman

Unfortunately not much to the annoyance of you and many other users Garmin want it this way and only this way. Although there are work rounds if you have bought it to get it on a larger card. As not everyone wants to or will use cracked software and prefers to support software producers so they continue to develop software for the future. Personally i really can't believe that Garmin actually think this is a good idea and that most users would like having to both carry an extra card just with their Sat Nav on it and then have to swap it into the device when they want to use it, seems totally daft to me.

Personally i usually use Tom Tom as my preference especially as it's what i am used to and has always worked so well on so many different devices for me. It worked best on my E90 and it's large 4" internal screen as it showed so much information and just looked stunning.
