McGuider is officially no more, having been withdrawn from the TeleAtlas portfolio officially from 13th November 2009. A short statement on the offical McGuider websitewebsite reads

 

Dear McGuider user and friend,


We would like to inform you that, with effect from 13 November 2009, McGuider products will no longer be part of the Tele Atlas portfolio. For future reference, we would like to recommend Sygic mobile maps, which is very similar in functionality and pricing to McGuider 2009. The latest version of mobile maps can be ordered from our online shopordered from our online shop.

This news does not really come as a surprise given TeleAtlas has not offically sold McGuider for much of the past year. In fact it was something of a surprise when new stock arrived on the TeleAtlas website a couple of months ago.

As the TeleAtlas statement says, Sygic Mobile Maps 9 offer very similar functionality - hardly surprising since McGuider was just a rebranded version of Sygic Drive (the name given to Mobile Maps in previous years). The new version also supports newer hardware including Google Android and Windows Mobile 6.5 based devices.
