Developer’s note:

AVEC is a Vector map viewer capable of displaying and navigating maps in the common Polish format maps. This 1.50 kernel version can also receive location from a GPS device and display your location on the map. If the map file has street information, the program tells you what street you are in, or lookup the name of a street selected with the crosshair.

There are two available downloads for the homebrew. The first one is the 1.50 kernel mode version with GPS functionality while the second download is the user mode for newer firmwares with no 1.50 kernel mode. It has no GPS functionality, but with the same map viewer and navigation.
