Garmin Mobile XT on Nokia e71

I have successfully installed the Garmin Mobile XT on my Nokia e71 and using the Malsing map. The e71 came with the pre-installed Nokia map. However, it's only valid for 3 months after which ones got to pay to use.

The e71 has the built-in GPS satellites receiver. So, not a problem to install extermal GPS navigator provider like Garmin. Garmin Mobile XT runs on the Symbian S60 platform.

If you need more details on the Garmins Mobile XT, please visit www.malsingmaps.com/forums/. The forum have many discussions on how to install Garmin Mobile XT into PDAs or smartphones.

Malsing map is available for download at FOC. There are two versions i.e. West Malaysia-Singapore map and East Malaysia map. However, the free download version is not the latest one. Ones got to pay as well for the latest version. The West Malaysia-Singapore map that I am using is last updated at 1Jan 2008.

Just to test out the Malsing map, I have selected to go to Giant Kinrara from Pelican factory, near Puchong Koi Tropika. Go to the Point of Interest (PIO) menu and select the Grocery and select the desired location.




After selected the desired location, just click the Go button or you can view the map as well.




The navigator has the voice instruction to tell how far the selected POI from your current location.

It tells which turn to take (left or right), how many metres before the turning, go take a ramp ahead or to make a u-turn. If you missed a turn, the navigator will re-calculate the routing and direct you back to the correct alternative direction.

Here is another picture after turning into Jalan Bukit Jalil-Puchong from the LDP near the IOI mall.




Finally, I reached with destination ie Giant Kinrara without any problem.


Will test the Garmin navigator out of the city to see if it workable.

My lucky draw prize

I have just attended my company annual dinner last Friday. That's correct! On Friday the 13th. But, nothing had gone bad huh.

This year, my lucky number is 117. My number was being called during the 1st round of the lucky draw. I have chosen the prize number of 94 and here you go...


However, i did not expect anything nice from ALBA T__T (my other colleague got a Cerruti watch, damn it).

Today, I collected the prize from the committee and it has a nice white color box:




On the inside.... nothing special about the watch except for the water resistant up to 5 bars. It has no date as well.




The funny is that the watch was being purchased on 25 May 2008 with less than 3 months warranty period left... wtf.



There is one more thing... can you spot it?



Anyway, so far my record is 66.6% i.e. going back without empty handed for the past 3 years... hah hah

Now I can check the traffic conditions at ITIS's Real Time Traffic Video-Streaming, surfing the net and checking emails while on the go.

Funny Nokia Phone

This Nokia phone is really weird and funny. Just take a look at the below pictures.





I am not sure the model of this phone. It has those PDA kind of stylus to navigate the menu on the screen. It took me few minutes to figure out on how to use the stylus. I used the stylus to touch on screen few times (so stupid... -.-III)



Finally, I found out that there is a hidden touch pad behind the keypad. Haiiiii.... I just need to flip the keypad out la... LOL
