A Review of OSM from Manilla
Chin Wong, writing in the Manila Standard Today just found OpenStreetMap. He gives it a realistic review and cites why he feels, despite suggestions from an OSM contributor to the contrary, that it's not yet "nailed Manilla." More articles like that mean a better OSM.

TomTom Lowers Debt, Raises Stock Price, Lowers Expectations
Among the announcements today:
TomTom reduced net debt by 16 percent in the past quarter. (That drove stock up 8% in Amsterdam.)
The company dropped revenue expectations for 2008 to 1.66 billion euros ($2.16 billion) to 1.68 billion euros, from as much as 1.85 billion euros.
Total sales last year were about 34 million, lower than the expected 36 million.
TomTom will take a charge on the acquisition of Tele Atlas. No word on how much, but it won't impact loan agreements.
