Yes that's the RAM mount. Whole set of mount including the cradle, quick release, short arm and base ball cost me $100 excluding freight.

zumo400? 60csx? colorado300? which would u guys recommend?

 

If it is strictly for touring, with a wow factor, then it has to be Zumo. If you are into bike touring and trekking, or maybe even bike and hike then a 60CSx will be more practical.

 

However the determinant factor is always your budget. Roughly :

Zumo 450 = 2x 60CSx

Colorado 300 = 1.5x 60CSx

I updated my version to 3.71. Problem faced. The HDB logo in the map is showing a letter G instead of the cute symbol of the HDB. Address search still cannot. Unlocking i think i did unlock using the Sendmaps 2.0 by putting the Unlock code in the respective line and pressing the button Unlock Code. Nothing seems to confirm my unlocking but i think it is done.

 

Anyone op for a gathering to talk cok on this issue. I am kind of a idiot on Computer things and not to mention updating the GPS

Sorry don't know if any shops here brings in the Ram product. What I mean is I can get the item customise according to what I need. Think it's way too difficult for me to explain to you. Just google ram mounts and you'll know what I'm talking about.

If you want voice expect to pay more. But the 60CSX does beep on warning or coming to a turn. But it's useless for biking unless you are connected to your helmet.

[flareon1982]

U just copy the whole file into the GPS using what program? I using Sendmap 2.0 to combine the maps with the Malsing maps than put in. All the HDB logo become the letter G on the map. Dunno why.

I'm using sendmap 20 also. What I did was copy the whole file into it, then remove the singapore & johor and replace with Jerome's lock map.

Guys Since there is quite no of GPS users in here. I would like to organise a GPS outing Session. Meet up and share info as well as map oso. Makan points in malaysia.

 

Those who do not noe abt GPS alot can meet up and get to know more. Have a feel of the GPS model and decide on which to buy after feeling. wouldn't it be benefiting for all us.

 

At the same we make new frens and share things that you might and i might not noe.
