Is there any way to use OSM on Navigon software? I have been searching but I have no clue how to do it.

Thanks for any answer

As far as I know, there is no way to use OSM data with navigon software, because it is a non-free commercial map file format.

Maybe one possibility is there when your Navigon device is based on WindowsMobile ... then there are some tricks to run any WM app on devices, where it is possible.

Well, I have a chinese radio... those all in one things. I was looking for the best software to use OSM on it and navigon came up. But it is there any better alternative? I tried with garmin but it didn't work

I'm confused, what hardware, exactly are you using? Garmins will display osm but the map file needs to be in a format that the Garmin accepts.
