If I buy a GPS car system in the states would it work in China??
Just wondering if a GPS system bought elsewhere in the world would support non english speaking countries, in particular China, would the system be compatible ???????????????

- Get it prmmed to understand chinese.
- yes in china gps has been installed it will very well work
- It would tell you your position by latitude and longitude. I'd be surprised if you could find one with really good maps of Chinese roads.
- in car gps systems usually have a cd-rom and you would have to load that regions cd into your system. if it does not have a cd-rom then its cheap and it will not work.
- No, it won't work. Because all the GPS sold in the US only contain maps of USA, Canada and Mexico. You can pay extra to unlock maps of Europe, that's about it. You'll be better off buying a cheap handheld with no preloaded maps. It'll just show your co-ordinates in longitude and latitude instead of street names. But you can add POIs yourself to make a map.
- Yes it's "Global" you dork.
- Yes, the satellites that run the GPS system are owned by the US. IT will work anywhere, however you need to see if you can buy maps for China, for a particular unit.
