nokia is a brand.. if nokia which is non symbian.., cannot suport garmin...

garmin is compatible to Symbian phone, WM phone , Palm

so .. dont refer to phone brand if want to install garmin !

lol.. what do you mean install gps..?? sweat.gif

gps is already built in..dont need to be install...
what for you want to 'install' gps.... if you want phone with gps.. beside nokia 5800XM.. you can go for Nokia N79 , Nokia N78 , and Nokia N82...

the best here. should be N79 as N82 is EOL model..

1.. Brand. = any
2. Budget. = around 1k
3. Specs. = have touchscreen, easy to navigate for elderly people (my mom)
4. Type/Size. (Candybar, Clamshell etc...) = any
5. Others/Notes = my mom is searching for a phone that looks classy and will give people impression that she is successful in her business ( she's in MLM btw).

i was thinking of getting a 2nd hand iPhone 2G which condition is not too terrible for her.(can iPhones change casing?). Not too sure about Android phones, whether is it easy to be navigate, but as i said, she wants a phone that is easy to be navigate while it has touchscreen (which means WM phones are out of this league already).

no need more expensive phone when you are not using its features, no?

iphone would be a nice choice..
another phone would be Nokia X6 , Nokia 5800XM ..
but your budget is so tight

QUOTE(Axell @ Mar 27 2010, 04:24 PM)

basically.. all nokia that in navigator series come with gps software and preloaded maps with full navigation license..

other than that.. you need to pay to get full lifetime navigation license

basically.. if the phone has built in gps..
you can navigate for free[no charge]..
unless u use and enable the a-gps[then u will connected to network.. so you will be charged for the connection]

for the software.. actually.. it is free..
garmin,ovi maps is free..
you just need to pay for navigation license...
and I suggest to go for symbian phone... which can support the best gps software @ garmin ..
there are free maps which is updated weekly..

and for the license is.. it is only about 99USD @ RM 300 for a lifetime.. nod.gif

What's the difference if I don't enable the a-gps?Looks like I can consider buying the license if it is a lifetime. I'm not a heavy navigator user so I think just a basic gps hp will do for me. I prefer hp which excel in taking photo with wifi and gps enabled. Any large screen hp that fit my needs?
*
with your budget.. i think.. SE C905 is just fine for you but wayfinder navigator has no way to use the built in gps alone.. as it will connected to internet..
in this cases.. everytime you use it.. you will connecting the internet.. and you will be charged for it..

on other hand.. i can suggest you to go for smartphone and i suggest you to go for Symbian phone
- Nokia N79 is a smartphone.. and garmin can be installed in this phone.. you just need to pay for lifetime license.. and you can use the garmin for free and you can navigate for free.. unless you enable the a-gps.. this software can use the built in gps alone..so.. no connecting to internet and you can navigate for free..

SE C905
Pros - excellent 8MP camera , simple phone
Cons - not a smartphone[not smart enough LOL] , the gps software can not use only built in gps.. so you need to connect to network@internet to navigate

Nokia N79
Pros - it is a smartphone , so.. many software can be install in this phone.. almost all of the gps software [Nokia Maps,Sygic,Ndrive,TomTom,GarminXT..etc] that available for symbian can use built in gps.. so navigating will be free unless u enable the a-gps
Cons - the camera is 5MP and not as excellent as C905 but it still good

Sorry I need to reconsider: budget below RM1K

Nokia N79 vs HTC Touch2 ?

I am more into browsing(Wifi & 3G), view youtube, read .pdf/.doc, snap pictures, listen to music, GPS a lot...

Can I have more application using Symbian or Mobile Windows?
Or you have other phone to recommend below RM1k?
*
based on those two..
nokia N79 win in terms of camera
HTC touch 2 win in terms of browsing
well i think.. if you want to browse... touchscreen is easier.. but N79 also excellent in browsing..
the different is just using keypad to browse it..
choose N79 or N85[if you want slide phone with bigger screen]
i cannot recommends other since your budget is limited..
and i will not recommend you to go for 5800XM since its camera is not so good..

so.. go for N79 or N85 !
practically.. if you have higher budget.. there are phones that way better !!

Hi hi all,

I'm looking to get a new mobile phone for my mum. Her 3310 is already a bit outdated and battery cannot hold charge any longer. Can recommend a suitable phone for her? Prefer Nokia since she know how to use the interface already.
1. Brand: Nokia
2. Budget: Around RM300
3. Specs: Color LCD not necessary. Important Font size is big enough (poor eyesight)
4. Type/Size : Something smaller than 3310. If possible similar size like SE K810i

Please recommend. Tqtq smile.gif

can go for Nokia 2700 / Nokia 2730

E72
- 5mp AF with flash , Symbian V3 FP2 , slightly faster processor than omnia pro b7330 , Accelerometer sensor for auto rotate and tap-for-time Optical trackpad..
omnia pro b7330
- 3.2mp AF with geotagging, no flash, WM 6.5 , slightly slower processor than e72...

QUOTE(MmxZero @ Mar 31 2010, 04:22 PM)
Sorry I posted twice. Was in the wrong section.

I just want to ask about E63, E71 and E72. Well my budget can only reach to this 3 phone so I can't really go for blackberry.

I need to type a lot of messages and a proper organiser and use the web frequently. I'm not really interested on the camera at all and trying avoid phone with touch screen function.

Besides the camera, anything else different? How about the keypad?

So should I just got for the e72 since it's the latest? Or should I just stick to E71 or E63.

Sorry and Thx.
*
LOL.. blackberry is in your budget..
you can go for
- Blackberry Curve
- Blackberry Storm
- Blackberry Tour

if dun want Blackberry. just go for the latest one.. E72 !

I have already survey and found out that i like the above 4. but don't know which is good? any recommendations?
thanks

smile.gif
the first thing is what the criteria that you want in your phone..?
all phone that stated above has it own advantages and disadvantages..
for exp[i just stated its own disadvantages]
BB storm 2 - bad camera quality[who cares??it is biz phone] ,no radio, phone's internet browser not support flash, no video call camera
Nokia N900 - well for now, the Maemo OS still new and not popular.. so the 3rd party software still limited., no voice recorder, no MMS, no
handwriting recognition
SE Vivaz - no stereo speakers, no secondary video call camera, no digital compass ,
Nokia N97 mini - no FM transmitter, no smart dialling, it is just mini version of N97[in fact it is]

well.. SE Vivaz is the best phone among them in terms of camera
but overall best phone is still Nokia N97 mini.. whistling.gif




QUOTE(Alex Chillax @ Apr 1 2010, 12:17 PM)
PS: Is there any difference in quality in terms of AP or ORI set?

actually NO !!
but sometime YES.. it depends..from where you buy it...,where is the AP sets come from.. etc..
