[whyzee]

You guys wanna go to the waterfall at labis instead? I heard it's better than the one that I'm planning for...

[SW9000]

Labis one done last year already.

Small small just after the hotspring we went the other day.

Semi off road at the last part.

 

I've never tried Rompin.

see see got durians in Mersing then buy some and eat at waterfall.

[whyzee]

ahh. like that. ok. hope the rompin one wun be too small for you.

[SW9000]

Its the ride and riders that matters... not the waterfall.

[scoobydoo]

yo SW9000, have you signed up for your fibre BB? seems like M1's deal is most value for $$

 

cheapest fibre plans:

M1 HomePac (Fibre) =

Starhub MaxInfinity =

[scoobydoo]

So most likely it is a pick and go.

wah sei... tio bei pio or strike toto izit?

 

confirm buying garmin arh?

3.5" 1250 (no free gift) or 4.3" 1350... diff only $40 but you can sell the gift to lower the diff

added: was told the gift (friction mount) is selling at show for about $25 if buy separately, maybe can recover $15~$20 depending on luck.

 

TMD, i paid $339 for the 1460 in the last show, now its down to $299

luckily my free gifts got the friction mount, GTM35 and 5 country maps.

[scoobydoo]

hmmm... i only know of 2 commonly used routes to mersing...

 

* via pasir gudang hw, jalan kota tinggi, kota tinggi, jalan jemaluang, mersing (abt 151km from gp esso, most common)

or

* via NS hw, ayer hitam, jalan mersing, mersing (abt 211km from gp esso, more scenic but further and into the mountains)

 

if via kulai, still gotta go via kota tinggi and jalan jemaluang (dist is abt 173km from gp esso)

Hello chief, may i check how is nuvi 1350 ? issti worth the mola now @ $199 ?

[scoobydoo]

worth or not can't say for sure... depends on individual usage leh

if useful, $500 also worth... if buy to collect dust, $100 also not worth

 

as far as riders are concern, i'ld recommend a Garmin for 3 very good reasons (imo):

+ there're dedicated RAM mount kits to hold the garmin unit firmly in place (won't drop out while riding)

+ easy to use user interface

+ most importantly, got free regular map updates from malfreemaps that covers singapore, w.malaysia and southern thailand; community maps are a lot more detailed and with lots more POI than the original garmin NT maps

 

but if you look at price and features, the other makes seems more attractive cos cheaper and some can double up as multimedia player
