Nusa is about the closest, however, they do not have any maps available for my area. Do you think GPS tuner will work?

If your pocket PC has build in GPS, so you don't need GPS tuner, just software and maps. Based on my experiences, the maps itself is separated with the software. it doesn't matter if you are using pocket PC+GPS tuner or you are using GPS hand held (such as Garmin V or ex-Trex Vista CX) , the important thing is you have the map. Maybe you can try to contact PT. Kesuma and PT. Freeindo. Both of the company listed in yellow pages of business Jakarta. Event they have websites. You can ask them to find better solution. Those 2 companies is register as Garmin-GPS distributor. You should ensure first its compatibility if you are using pocket PC with the map and the software. It is quite expensive for the map
