I just get mine from Queensbay Mall. It is like 2XXX with free 2GB microSD memory. Anyway, I like it. I like its design especially.

But the Mapking GPS is real suck compare with my previous Garmin Nuvi 660

I am using cruise now. If you wanna import your contact from MS outlook, you cna simply syncronize the device with your pc. There is a sim manger that allowed you to delete all contact in your simcard.

blur in importating the contact .. sad.gif ... help help ..

referring to my post in tytn2 thread. i repeat DO NOT allow the bozos at PDA expert to install mapking 2007 4 u.
it will ruin ur gps experience 4ever especially if ur a virgin.
if they already install, IMMEDIATELY uninstall it.

use mapking r12 (not sure if comes pre-bundled with cruise) instead and download the maps from malsing.com and make sure u register the penin mal map.

why u said that? .. wat is the matter ? ..


Added on February 11, 2008, 3:38 pmi got all the contact from my previous hp .. i need copy the contact from old hp to my cruise .. what should i do? .. how to sync? .. i dont have any contact in outlook ..

so .. what software should i install for gps instead of mapking 2007? ..

as i read and know from pda expert people, they said that mapking r12 bundled wif is much slower than 2007 version .. so they install me mapking 2007 ..

so guys, what software are u using for gps? .. tq ..

I just got my cruise from DigitalGadgets in lowyat yerterday. I havnt got to installing any softwares yet. here's the run down on what i got for RM2849 ( got a 50 buck discount  rclxm9.gif )

Package includes:
1. Cruise (obviously) and battery (duhh..)
2. Screen protector
3. 2gb microSD (original was 1gb)
4. AC adapter
5. USB sync cable
6. USB stereo headset
7. Carrying pouch
8. Car charger
9. Car holder (apparently for the GPS function)
10. Extra stylus
11. 1 Jabra BT125 bluetooth headset (price tag says its worth RM179 .... think this is the extra bundle)
12. 1 "Getting Started" CD with Office Outlook 2007 trial
13. 1 "Applications Disc" with Sprite Backup, Spb GPRS Monitor, CE Star, WorldCard Mobile and Mapking R12
Im not entirely sure whether its significant or not but i went into other shops and they were telling me different stories about the bundles. 1 shop told me its only 1gb microSD. Another told me that they can reduce the price but no bluetooth headset. Others totally no freebies, only the items in the box.

I did asked the guys at DigitalGadgets, they told me that at the moment there are still no screen protectors out for the Cruise yet. Same goes for the carrying case so have to stick with the bundled carrying pouch for the moment. Anyone have any idea if other areas might sell the screen protector and carrying case?

Been using it for nearly 1 day now, battery life seems good. I had a lot of SMSs and a few phone calls yesterday with bluetooth on for file transfers and WiFi at home. Bought it at round noon and the battery was charged. Before I turned in for the night at round 3am, I still had bout 60% battery left.

I dont really felt any lagging in terms of the navigation between windows. Wasnt as bad as I expected it to be; Very smooth so far. Apart from being a fingerprint magnet, I have no gripes with it at the moment and hopefully none in the future as well.
*
quite a good deal you got there .. smile.gif .. i actually asked them also but they gave me RM2850 with 1GB but no jabra b/t and the others same as yours .. then i went to pda expert, they gave me rm2899 with 2gb toshiba card and bt3010 b/t .. and also a software support .. straight away got it from them .. smile.gif .. before that, i survey the other shops but no1 give me a good deal .. most of them sell it rm2899 without freebie and some of them are selling rm2999 without freebie.

i have problem with my wifi .. i tried to connect to wlan and the status shows connected .. but i couldnt manage to surf over the internet .. what should i do ha? is there any setting, etc? .. i tried with IE and opera and both didnt work .

When I bought my HTC Touch Cruise, the shop installed Mapking 2007 for me, not Mapking R12.
Anybody knows which one is better? Is Mapking R12 easier to use? thank u

i would say that mapking 2007 is better than R12 .. however, it is depends on your preference . smile.gif .
