yeah, too bad UIQ is going down and S60 going to rise. Hopefully S60 could be better in time. Nokia 5800 is a good sign, first touch screen s60.

btw, i got over my sceptic and got myself a Holux M-241 to pair it with my P1i. It works! and garmin 5 is smooth. why i choose this model? coz it's a standalone logger with a useful lcd panel. been using it for a few weeks already.



this upgrade just extend its usefulness for a very long time. the only downside, battery life is significantly shorter. garmin itself is using 4M ram, bluetooth, backlight, voice..... huge drain. with full charge, it can last for 4-5 hour journey and enuf power for a day of normal phone use before need charging.

i used malsing before, now malfree. i support malfree cause.
at the very first time i used it, it feel no lag (v1.31). then i adjust some setting and update to latest map (v1.34) and notice some lag. revert to default setting, less lag a bit. but i read somewhere, it could be coz of the map version. i still listening to mfm forum for cure.

just google malfreemaps.

IMHO, built in gps drain too much power from already power-hungry smartphone. which the main reason i chose holux M-241. standalone logger powered by a single AA battery. even its bluetooth connection can be turn off to save power when used as logger. love the lcd display too. Easy.

i love P1i touchscreen responsiveness but QWERTY RULES! 5800 Tubians can't sms while taking corner at 140km/h. we can! just don't get caught by police
