u mean GPS is NOW functioning

lol. no problem. i think pipedream's GPS is functioning la, just gotta wait a bit. must do outdoors u know. right map loaded also.

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

I'm a heavy GPS user using P3600i. and i can personally vouch for its effectiveness. Even the P100 is not too bad, used it before too.

The onli GPS device u shud be worried about i believe is the N95. The suckiest GPS ever.

@maxzilly, the BT GPS will have a GPS chip yes, but necessarily a Sirf III chip.

if u buy a pda without GPS u have to install the SOFTWARE. u cant install the chip. Then u buy a BT GPS device which HAS the chip, u connect, and wala.

Whoa awesome. my thread got pinned XD

N95 has built in receiver already. just on should be able to work. but i have not used N95 before so cant say exactly, check maybe the settings are there any com ports to choose from and choose auto detect. erm....on your program go open area, see GPS status or something in your program, see if u can see a globe. There shud be several circles either red or blue with weird numbers. if got means its working and currently detecting sattelite. N95 is notorious for a damn long time taken for GPS to detect sattelite

erm, like how? haha u PM me i'll edit and paste la?

i think he meant the receiver or antenna onli dude. >.<

malaysia map for mapking? wat version? try www.malsingmaps.com

lol, those are phones which few of us have. we may be able to help u, but if its phone related we'd probably be just as clueless

who said it was free? the software mapking is not free, but the free map for the commercial software can get taken from malsingmaps.com

hmmmm, not sure about 3D dude, but Mapking, the latest versions are R12 and 2007. Others are older versions. R12 and 2007 same, just packaging diff

1) which mapking version are u buying? some versions once u buy u can use any map, some versions u buy the MAPS instead, so u pay per map
2) not quite sure what you're talking bout, refering to the malsingmaps?? do clarify
3) Again, two difference Mapking software. .m7a = Mapking 2007, .G12 = Mapking G12. For intents and purposes, they're the same, though the G12 version looks sleeker, and newer and cooler. IMO. And no, they're not cross compatible (if i'm right)

its up to u how often u wanna update the maps. for me i update the map maybe after 3-4 months, when i think there's possible some major road changes or something.

mapking and garmin are both good, just that Mapking got 3D. check em both out and see which u prefer.

the holux car charger? dun know what u talking about, if it can fit your pda's port, and if same voltage etc, i guess u cud do that

from what i can see, if u buy from their site, its 2007. but those bundled (as in officially bundled) normally they give u G.12. Again, like i said, their build is actually the same. different packaging thats all. so dun worry about "which is better". Same

be careful in KL though, where they're many flyovers crisscrossing each other. Because GPS accuracy 10 meters, u'll have some problem.

If your GPS directions seem to conflict with the signboard, follow the signboard, not GPS. at least u're heading in the right direction. If its not the way GPS shows, it can easily recalculate.

bottomline, u shud at least have a look at the map to know the GENERAL DIRECTION you're heading. I once wanted to go Shah Alam, ended up in Kajang. Old malsingmaps with garmin that time not updated enuf =.=

lol, i think you bought an overseas set, where the bundled mapking is in chinese. i PM-ed you

u dun have to update the software, just the maps will do. but IF u can, it may be a good idea to update the version. maybe less bugs, faster,etc

no, u dun need. its free to USE. just obtaining the maps, depends where u get from, some places/softwares may charge u for a one time purchase of map

U got PM. please check
