But we don't really know what the other owners have in mind with the GPS. But here, we cans see many asking for what software to use the GPS, at least here it is used by many.

until now i can't stream youtube videos yet. Destop and mobile version both fail.

Isnt the GPS thing pre-built in?

Yes. But only the hardware bits. I think......
You have to pay for updating maps or whatever, I'm not really sure, this GPS thing confuses me.
If Garmin comes out a version for S60 5th, I'll surely pay for it. To avoid further confusion.

the paid for version is more restrictive than the pirate version, sadly.

in the end, you'll just go for the freebie.

True, I am not Gramin. But think in a business and legal sense and you will see why I say what I said. How many pple who bought the 5800 actually willing to BUY GMXT? Are you one of them?

what's the current price for ap set?

Many of us here asking for GMXT because they hope can get the "ahem" version. If there was no "ahem" version, how many pple here are willing to actually pay for GMXT? Maybe we should do a survey, out of the 200 plus tubians here, who is willing to pay for GMXT?

The paid for version may initially be more restrictive than the freebie but it is still modifiable. I assume you are talking about the GMXT purchased and it comes in a memory card. As far as I know, we can still just download GMXT from garmin's website and still use it without restrictions provided we have the licence key. You are not paying for the app, you are paying for the licence to use it. And the licence does not restrict you in modifying the app. The freebie version is not actually hacked so that any tom, d*** and harry can use it. You can still just download it from Garmin's website. What the pple have come out with is a way to produce a licence key that can be used. Thats all.

Hi there tunertoobe. Its good that you are one who is willing to pay for a good app. However, my point is how many more pple are like you? Out of 200 plus tubians here alone, if got majority, then I would say there may be a REAL demand for GMXT. But if only minority, how?

Yeah, guess ur right.

they need me to put my fon there for few days. im not going to let them fix it.

Wha? No way!! I thought I could send it in at lunch after work and then pick it up on the way home!
I'll just have to insist on heving it done in a few hours then.

Your view might be a bit short sighted. U are looking at Malaysian user. How about Global? UK, US, EU.. They are more aware of intellectual property compare to us.

The market for 5800 is huge this is because it first nokia touch screen and it is very price competitive. Furthermore. with Nokia announced N97 around March 09, I am sure Garmin want to join the Nokia touch screen wagon.

It is norm that software company launching out lasted version to catch up with new hardware. Garmin already support Winmo touchscreen, I dont this is that hard for them to do it for Nokia touch screen.

You think too much....Last round during FP2, they also had to cater to all those customers using the 10x gpsr. It just makes good business sense to satisfy the demands of the consumers. Piracy is just an unfortunate side product. It doesn't make sense to wait until the N97 is released to develop the software when it can be done now.

You're only saying so because you're focused on the piracy side. But on the legitimate side, there's no reason not to release the new software when it's done.

Besides, I'm speaking from personal experience. I do have a Garmin 10x, and it was after several email correspondence with Garmin that a compatible version for Fp2 was released. Even through most of the FP2 phones had gps built in, piracy wasn't a factor in our discussions, just that Garmin had the obligation to support FP2 phones as we consumers had purchased their hardware.

Even if Garmin releases a version without internal GPS support but supports S60v5, I'll still be more than happy.

Your reasoning is just plain wrong, mainly because most people here are interested in the pirated version, doesn't mean that there can't be legal users out there. Garmin has thus far never delayed any update due to piracy, and I don't see any reason for them to start now.

better get zitron / avaxx here only rm1350
