Hey i was wondering if anyone has any GPS software for the pocketpc like Destinator3 or Copilot Live.

I just got a gps for my ipaq and i need some software for it.

Please let me know if you have any of these.

Im using Destinator 3 on my ipac, works well in Brisbane, and Sydney. crap in Canberra...it gets very confused with all the round-about's. the maps are a bit out of date. used it to get from Canberra to Brisbane and ended up driving over a few lakes according to the maps! It also helps to have the pda set up so u can see the screen while driving, the voice commands aren’t always right!

Destinator 3 is a little out of date but 4 is already being built. It is very expensive ($600rrp) for the software but is mapped by MapInfo who cover 99% of all sealed roads in Australia.

Even local firetrails etc show up on Destinator 3. We have Navman, Garmin, Destinator, Belkin (CoPilot Live) and I've tried them all - I prefer destinator.

Free updates while the version is current. I.e. you can buy it now and get free updates until the new version is released then you have to suck eggs.

Hey Zathris i just got a copy of destinator3, damn its a good program, i was wondering if you could do me a favor, since i have a copy of it and not the original i had to download a destinator.exe file off the net from a ipaq that had it on there and registered, but its from a little earlier version but its still version 3, it works fine but i was wondering if you wouldnt mind emailing me the destinator.exe file off of your pocketpc for me.

My email address is [email protected]

I would apreciate it greatly

2rismo: Do you know what software the factory toyota navigation system uses? I've heard many times over that it's the best nav system in Australia.

Last I checked, Toyota/Lexus were using a Deno (http://www.denso.com.au/satnav_main.htm) system with Whereis (http://www.whereis.com.au/whereis/products...d_invehicle.jsp) maps.

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me  
    • That's my life. Past-Duncan has a lot to answer for
    • Yep four point harness. Mounted to a bolted in brace running behind the seats. Dont use it for daily driving tbh but good to have for when its needed plus it looks cool.
    • I had to double check the thread title r34 gtt offset advice lol. Thought maybe i posted on the wrong thread. 😂
