lost need driving directions

I haven't been able to find a website that offers driving directions from one point to another, here in HK, like mapquest does overseas. If anybody knows of one, could they tell me?
Also, as an alternate I was thinking of getting a small GPS, but haven't seen anybody using one around here. Do they have GPS with driving directions for HK and the NT?
Thanks!

I've seen a couple of pda shops in the Wanchai Computer Centre selling GPS units and maps for HK.

Why do you say GPS don't work in HK?? I have only used my handheld eTrek a few times in HK (never really needed it) and it has worked fine. I guess if you are on HK island and you are challenged for a view of clear sky above, then the GPS won't work (I think they need a minimum of 3 sattelite views to work). In the NT this should not be a big issue.

I've been using the "Hong Kong directory" which is ok, but I need something I can stick on the tank of my bike
