Hahaha, u are exactly the opposite of me... My gf depends on me as a GPS when we're traveling, whether overseas or domestic!

Which is why i want to get that GPS, as it's far more dependable than ol' me... And yeah, it'll definitely be an excellent help in locating gasoline stations or even R&R areas (for toilet mah! )...

Hi Deani_77,

First u have to say the "CORRECT ANSWER" although it may not be the "REAL ANSWER". It all works the same; whether the question is whether she looks fat, whether her dress looks nice... just say the correct answer first.

Then when she's satisfied and not looking, gently pat ur Nuvi/Holux/PDA and say in ur mind "there there... I know u know enough ok..."

The perils of gf fighting for attention with ur gadgets is VERY REAL. Haha...


Hi THTUG,

I'm a real direction blind guy. So bad until my gf can navigate better than me.


Hi dillydally,

Buy a Nuvi, wrap it in plastic and sign up for the most expensive motor insurance u can get ur hands on. Gao tim...

kerazul....if i buy nuvi can i mount it at my motorcycles??

if u have a smooth glass/plastic surface then u can gua. Or u might have to DIY a mount lor. Just worried that mat rempits will ragut u oni.

apparently, there is an instruction on web for mounting nuvi 200 on bicycle.... so if can mount on bicycle, then should be no problem for motorcycle

omg thats so cool the bike version. but a bit dangerous right looking down to see while moving

The only thing nuvi series was not water resistant. You will need a problem when using that unit when rainy days.

For waterproof GPS system go for Garmin60csx or 76csx or zumo...see the setup by members of malsingmaps (Need to register to see the picture):

option 2 gladwrap the whole thing or put it in a zip lock bag

i've used a cling wrap before for protection....... works quite well for short term usage.
no need to use cellular tape.

nuvi 200 now can! with firmware update 3.4.
Yet to try it cos afraid my maps n poi's gets wiped out. Will be passing it to my reseller fren to update.

Agreed with bro Stimix some more for that unit (60series, 76 series, etrex series) there is ready bike mounted, so no need to fabricate yourself.

Cool, then i guess the Nuvi 200 is the best one for an entry-level beginner like myself then... Since its the most affordable and (hopefully) easiest to use...

Not beginner lah... The only thing nuvi series don't have tracking capabilities.

otherwise ucan help with sharing more maps

huahauhauhauhuah

giler susah gps ni

i thought just simple and easy

many software needed n to contribute
so can get new map

Susah... Mana ada susah... Senang je...

It much cheaper for you to contribute rather than buying original map from Garmin.
