Hi Everyone,

I'm new on smartphones and planning to get one. I'd read as much as I could on the pages but not all (95 pages in this thread so far!)

I like to ask 2 things...

1) I'd read alot about htcsense.com not working or working on and off. How is the situation at the moment? Is it better now i.e. the functions as advertised by htc previously?

2) As for the Locations software and maps, does it work well with the phone compass? Does it have well-stocked maps on Malaysia and neighbouring countries (like those on AirAsia destinations)?

Sorry if these questions has been asked before.. and thank you in advance for your reply! laugh.gif

I'm using the HTC Premium Navigation (You get a voucher code in the box so you can register for free, maps are updated, because I noticed the recently sealed off road near my house WAS registered in the map, although its not as detailed as Garmin/Papago but it does the job pretty well overall getting you to the area. If you're talking very specific like locating side lanes/back alleys etc its not as accurate as other paid GPS Nav systems out there though.

According to the HTC Desire Z (link here) video at their website , they say when using Locations, there's no need to live download the maps since you download the map once and it is saved in the phone. But will the phone still be using data when you use it while walking/driving around and looking at the map/compass thingy?

I'd not used Garmin/Papago before. I presume you'll also download the maps and save into the phone as well? Any data usage AFTER downloading? Cos I'm concerned about data roaming overseas (I wonder how they charge for tat)
