My GPS hardware
- Royaltek GPS Datalogger RGM-3800, with a SiRF Star 3 chipset: this is my preferred one, very small < 50 gr. without batteries, easy to use just one button to press, works with 2 AAA 2x1.5Volts batteries available even in the most isolated village. It can store up to 650,000 trackpoints. Output message: NMEA 0183 ver. 3.0,GGA, GSA, RMC and GSV every 1s.
- Navilock NL-402U - USB Receiver with SiRF Star3 Chipset.
Editor support for localised arabic tags:
JOSM builds 1044 and newer support the display of local names. It detects the current system locale and tries to display names in this language first. You can change this behaviour in the JOSM expert settings. To display names written in Arabic first, even if the current locale is 'en' set the following property:
mappaint.nameOrder=name;name:ar;name:en;name:fr;int_name
The same mechanism can be used to see English names for places even if the system locale is different. Simply list the names in the order you prefer.
Snapshots of arabic localised user interface for JOSM , I am currently working on
Translated is the basic user interface, e.g. without all the plugins since some of them are country specific Like Cadastre for France. so far....

Can Garmin devices show arabic script in street maps ?
In principle yes ! Garmin devices are able to display arabic script, as you can see from the screenshots below. But I have no infos on how to do that.
