Hey there GPS users. I'm planning to get a GPS cuz i'm always lost in KL. I was wondering,....
a) is it worth the money? is the connection always available in Malaysia here?
b) my friend told me that GPS shows the road and direction, but dangerous to use cuz some roads are 1 way street, GPS doesnt tell. true or false? do advise, and the GPS programme that u use
c) wats the difference between 16 channel and 32 channel??
any other pointers for someone who never use GPS before?
looking to buy bluetooth GPS for Ipaq 4150, hence all these questions.
the questions above i already posted in another section, under networks and broadband, but i post again here cuz i got additional questions, and i felt the above questions might be linked
i wanna ask, like i said earlier, i using Ipaq 4150, and planning to use GPS. Is it good enough?? the specs of my 4150? so far i love my 4150, small, compact, and fast enough. but for GPS (using bluetooth some more) i wanna ask ok or not?
hmm, new bluetooth gps user here.. as for ur questiona) is it worth the money? is the connection always available in Malaysia here?

a)for me, i think is worth and connection are always available if u r in open space regardless where u are
b)never directed me to one way road before though.. nontheless, if u see a one way road, juz purposely miss the junction n new route will be calculated to u in no time
c)i think that is how many satelite ur gps can capture.. but AFAIK, it doesnt matter as u juz need a minimum of 3-4satelites to work.. n max satelite u will get is 12.. i juz think la coz the earth is sphere, covered with 24 satelites.. if we on the gps, i think only can get half of the sphere which is 12 satelites.. i think those good chipset got faster refresh/update time..
if u were to use bt gps, the only draw back is u need to bring 2 device and charge diffrently.. other than that, i think it is perfect
