Hi All,
thanks for the informative site keep up the good work!
As a Newbie I have a couple of questions that I am hoping you experienced users can answer. I have tried to search the forums but I havent found any direct answers.
Firstly I have to choose between the Older N-Gage or the newer QD. I have read the stickies on which is the best but their are so many divided opinions I am still left with which one to get. On one hand I can buy an old N-Gage used for around 70 Euros and new for around 120 Euros. The newer QD runs at around 100 Euros used and around 180 Euros new. I must admit my prime use for the N-Gage will be as a GPS unit (which I have further questions) and secondly as a telephone and then thirdly as a Game Machine. However in saying this I have an ear for a few MP3's or two and like the thought of Stereo sound. Would the mono sound on the QD effect Navigation software speech? How I answer the telephone or listen to the radio is not significant for me. I have heard that the QD has a better screen and a better battery life. Also from what I read it has version 2.0 of the operating system but what is the differerence between version 1.0 and 2.0. Is one more stable than the other?
As a GPS unit is the N-Gage the way to go?? From what I see it is over 250 Euros for a PDA with Navigation software and here I can get an N-gage (used) and a Bluetooth GPS for around 130 Euros then I must choose the software. Which software is the best and which software will run on the N-Gage Old and Ngage GQ?I have read various topics on which MMC cards are compatible with the N-Gage but does the older N-Gage support cards over 128MB as I think a GPS software would require at least 256MB.
I would appreciate any help from anyone and will take all opinions on board.
