Just got the HCH 32

Came from Semicon today and just got news that the new software upgrade is already in Manila but not yet awailable in Cebu. I think there problem is their internet connection is only using dial up so it takes a long time and a lot of hangups to dowload the software 😞

Anyway, while I was there, I got myself an HCH 32 and since I already have a car charger, is was perfect! 😊 Here are some screen shots of the package, Ill post some screen shots of it attached to my car tom, I have to get another camera so I can take a picture with my P800 in it 😊

I did not screw it to my car bec I thot this was very cruel(to my car), I used double sided tape instead 😊 Looks perfect 😊 Pics of that coming tom 😊 Meanwhile.. (There was a P800 cardboard on it to show how it looks like just incase you are wondering why there is a P800 inside the package)

Tell me the plastic thing between your fingers is just packaging and the bit I am meant to be looking at is right near the phone... please 😃 😃

Saw the Motorola one in a cab the other day and boy was it big and clunky. Then I noticed the driver had a T68 clipped to the dash also... allegedly because the Motorola is so crap he only uses it for business, the T68 is his preferred one...

That is an Unopened Plastic packing 😊 The P800 on the pic is just cardboard, my p800 on the other hand is the one taking the pic 😊 Ill post pics tom showing the holder mounted to my car via double sided tape. Who would ever want to screw and make holes on our cars!!!! 😮

Well, I have an MG V8, on cars that old, you kinda have to drill holes to get any sort of modern kit to fit :roll:

Not to mention the double sided stuff that comes with most kits comes in two forms;

1. Falls off after five minutes flat
2. Never comes off, and if you try to get it off, most of the dash comes with it.. (Or on an MG, it probably simply makes the rust thats holding the dash in crumble.. 😃 Kidding! 😊)

The kit didnt come with its own tape. Bought a 3M double sided tape seperately 😊

Go on then, I can't hold my breath for very much longer or people with think I'm part of The Blue Man Group! :multi:

Called Semicon Cebu and they told me that they were able to download R2D already but there is something wrong with it 😞 So they cant upgrade yey😞

[quote="JulesG"]Awesome.

If only the metal sides actually did light up 😃[/quote]

Thats the sun reflecting on everything in the car 😃

I moved it nearer to the stearing wheel and it really is much better. It looks like a GPS device because the car holder eject slot looks like a tiny radar. Ill post some pics later.
