QUOTE(raist86 @ Jan 9 2007, 04:15 PM) I'm planning to get a gps bluetooth receiver to pair it with my IPAQ RX3715. Is there any compatibility issues which i need to know about? Which GPSrs should i purchase? Would prefer to hear from people who are actually using the device and not just specification based opinions. Am gonna use it for road navigation in malaysia. What sort of accuracy can i expect? I am using 1 with the rx3715. Running on Garmin que with gpsproxy. Accuracy mostly depends on the type of gps receiver you're using. Get the 1 with sirIII chipset. There is someone doing a bulk for holux236 gpsr at the bulk section. Price is quite good atr 350(I got mine at rm450 last time). Since I'm quite hopeless with direction on the road, navigation with que is quite good with malsingmaps. |

QUOTE(THT United Gadgets @ Jan 13 2007, 12:51 AM) Wah, it is something like a SmartTag then? Has to be affixed to the car? Like dat the best is still a device that can connect to the handheld and provide GPS... Here's a local seller that carry garmin product, it will give you a general idea of the pricing and type of gpsr available: http://www.sltsb.com/products.htm |

QUOTE(stimix @ Jan 13 2007, 10:00 AM) Just to add..Dun think Mapking support Palm! Their website only mentioned about PPC version, PC version & Smartphone Version (V7 only)...nothing mentioned about Palm ???? One more thing if you want to use mapking with malsingmap remember that malsingmaps only works with G10 version of mapking. |

QUOTE(THT United Gadgets @ Jan 15 2007, 01:10 PM) That GPS Bluetooth device can work with a Zire 72 or not, just to ask? I was told that MalsingMaps are not able to run with PalmOS handhelds, btw... Garmin que need garmin gpsr to work or by using gpsproxy or gpsgate. The problem is that both these program are not available in palm format. |

QUOTE(stimix @ Jan 15 2007, 10:02 PM) Mapopolis is outdated & there is no update on this map....but I did a research just for u....u should hv done more homework urself!  After searching PalmX.org & link to Garmin website, I gathered that the only compartible GPSr for u is Garmin GPS 10 Read this link: Garmin GPS10However Minimum Palm requirements = Palm OS 5 (enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology), 4 MB program memory So go look for Garmin GPS 10 (And dun confuse this wth the latest Garmin GPS10X as I dun think this latest GPSr compartible wth Palm O/S.. Actually Gps10x is compatible with palm; but need higher spec: Minimum Palm Requirements: Palm OS 5.4 or newer (enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology), 8 MB program memory, 128 MB storage card minimum, 2 GB storage card for full coverage see www.garmin.com/mobilephones/ for compatibility of specific devices http://www.garmin.com/products/garminmobile10/And you can run on garmin newer mobileXT --3d navigation (something like mapking UI). But this gpsr is a lot more expensive. |

QUOTE(THT United Gadgets @ Jan 16 2007, 04:58 PM) Aiyo, but they still don't have PalmOS-based maps ah? I don't see those guys in the Malsing Forums talking about those maps also... Malsingmaps is just the "map". Malsingmap "map" can be used on garmin product ; or ppc/palm/pc running garmin que or the newer version garmin mobileXT.

QUOTE(sonyclie77 @ Feb 8 2007, 10:47 PM) Try searching for an application called Phone Alarm. It enables one to keep the backlight on all the time. I'm using it without any problems at all.  Or you could try using gpsproxy2.2a. There is an option to flag permanent backlight on. |

QUOTE(March05 @ Mar 8 2007, 01:19 PM) I'm still hunting for a ~8" SVGA LCD Monitor (touchscreen if possible) for in-car sat navigation to hook up to my notebook. Let me know if you come across one.  Thanks, stimix, will be checking out the PDA phones you mentioned, but they all seem a bit bigger than what I'm trying to get. The Dopod S300 would have been ideal but.......  Maybe I'm being impractical. Kemen / casey , the same guy who's doing the bulk on holux gps on our bulk section is selling a 8.4" touch screen lcd on lelong. Maybe you can ask him.

QUOTE(March05 @ Mar 9 2007, 09:13 AM) Thank you, easirider. I think he offered it here in LYN too, but I can't find the thread anymore. BTW are you still using the GPSr from LeVisGuY? I'm very happy with mine, very good accuracy and trouble free. That was a crazy bulk, right? Right now using a holux236 slim. LevisGuy gpsr i am lending it to a friend. Definately a very memorable bulk. Accuracy of the solar gpsr is greatly enchanced with an external antenna. Here's the link to the touch screen in lelong: http://www.lelong.com.my/Auc/List/2007-03D...DEO_MONITOR.htmSame person casey in who is doing the bulk here for the holux: http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=388030&hl=caseyShould pm him and ask him about the touch screen lcd.

Depend where you get it. Pricing range from RM 1,800 - 2,400. Price would be cheaper if you can get it at Singapore. Bought mine 76csx from here : http://www.sltsb.com/prod02.htm |

Isn't it a lot cheaper just to get a bluetooth receiver? and you can use the receiver with other device; unless of course if you want an all in one device and not lug around another item.

QUOTE(Pennywise @ Jun 7 2007, 01:58 PM) Hi guys, I actually wanna get a GPS unit to be placed in my car. I do not want just a receiver but the whole unit gps and viewer. If I were to compare Holux and Garmin, it will be like Intel vs AMD or ATI vs Nvidia. Which model should I be looking at and which store around klang valley carries the most model for comparison? I dont know whats my budget but of course try not to be too expensive and maps. Should I worry about maps? You can try garmin nuvi series. Depending on your budget you can try nuvi 200, 300 or 600 series. Here's a comparison from garmin website: https://buy.garmin.com/shop/compare.do?cID=...areProduct=6292 |
