    N95 Tricks

    My mate downloaded the Nokia maps from their website for free and put them on his memory card. Then it just used GPS to track us. Totally free.

    Good luck with the new car. Out of curiosity, why are you not giving the garage all your old receipts?

    N95 Tricks

    Well it'd prob be connected by wifi most of the time since its all over my uni. How do you use the mouse pointer? does it jump from link to link or does it move like a normal mouse with the d-pad? andy, whats the bluetooth jacking? Anyone ever find their phone gets slow or needs constant...

    Indicated Speed vs Real Speed

    Well I know the speedo i ment to be a lil overestimated, built in to all cars I beleive, getting more inaccurate the faster you go. Top end doesn't concern me cos If I'm going that fast, I can get caught by coppers anyway. Just more of a concern on A roads. Yeah it was a illuminated sign...

    N95 Tricks

    That is awesome!! So you just download Nokmote and it works? Heard the 8GB uses harddrive when the ram is full, will the normal use the memory card when the ram is full? Does the ram get full often? Does the internet by HDPSA or wifi work really well? ie. easy to view and navigate without a...

    N95 Tricks

    I noticed there's some good things on the forum that you can do with an N95 (as standard or with add ons). So thought we could keep a log of what it can do, for ppl who might wanna add to their own N95 or for prospective buyers. So to start off: * GPS for sat nav (can it track travelling...

    Indicated Speed vs Real Speed

    Thats about 6% inaccuracy, which I'd be ok with at 130 (if my car went that fast) but 8mph out at 60 is a bit of a joke! Over 13%! Will a decent garage have the right tools to make it a bit more accurate?

    What tyres size?

    http://www.alloywheels.com/tyrecalc.asp Use the third calculator. Will help you match to the closest overall diameter. But at a guess, 195/50/15

    Indicated Speed vs Real Speed

    Nope car is standard as are tyre sizes. Obviously, never notice it in everyday driving, so guess I'm not actually driving as fast I think I am, might be a licence saver lol unless the speed check I passed is incorrect? Maybe get my dad to try in his car. I'll try a lower speed tomo as its on my...

    Building a Clio Sport Replica. Opinions?

    If you want a rep, go fo it, it's YOUR car so do what'll make YOU happy! Personally, I wouldn't spend much on modding it, maybe some subtle mods like lowering and wheel etc, but thats cos I'm fed up with how slow my 1.4 feels sometimes and I'd rather put the money towards a faster car in 6...

    Indicated Speed vs Real Speed

    Yeah I thought it'd be around 10% out at around 80+mph, but not that big a difference at that speed. Is it possible to have it recalibrated so thats its only a few mph out all the time?
  18. Vish

    Indicated Speed vs Real Speed

    Drove past a speed detectors that shows yours speed and it said I was doing 52 when I was doing an indicated 59/60, over 13% difference! Is the speedo met to be that inaccurate or do I need to get my car recalibrated?

    Sony Ericsson W960

    Re: Sony Ericsson W960i Between this and the N95 for me. HATE nokia's but GPS, 5MP camera and awesome video recording tempt me. Only SE interface and touchscreen trying to save me.

    Sony Ericsson W960

    Will it b available on orange? Its v. similar to P1i and orange had a lot of probs getting it right for their network. I've only seen P1i available on o2, maybe same for w960i. I really want this tho! I'm debating between w960i, P1i or N95. I'm not a huge nokia fan but the video recording is...

    iphone

    Well yesteray was my 1st day lol but I found out staff get no discount on o2 contract (what a bugger! prob switch to orange but p1i and w960 only on o2!) and think its 30% discount on phone prices, but I'm not sure if iphone will be an exception.

    Mobile Phone

    N95 is AWESOME at video, so shocked when I saw it. And it has direct connection to a TV and it really was so impressive. N73 has good specs, not sure on video quality, I know it has optical zoom but its very flimsy and feels like it could snap easily, and its a bit big. Not sure on prices tho...

    iphone

    I doubt there will be any good deals on it for a while, demand is to huge. The carphone warehouse I work at is closing at 3pm on friday to get ready for 6pm re-open for iphone launch at 6:02 lol we're open till 10 that night! Maybe a deal after xmas, but dont think my manager evens knows of...

    iphone

    Its £269 I think. Staff discount as far as I know it 30% off the price off the phone but since commission is less on the iPhone than other phones I guess you might not be able to get discount straight away.

    Speaker Advice

    What kind of speakers you looking for? Just front hifi speakers or full surround? For hifi: Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 (£150 new) or Tannoy Mercury F1 (£109 new). These are best I can think of from a couple months ago. Best check what hi-fi mag and check in the buyers guide at the back for...
