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 crap in Canberra...it gets very confused with all the round-about's. the maps are a bit out of date.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Destinator 3 is a little out of date but 4 is already being built.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.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
