wt_know;508021 said:the problem i'm facing occassionally is "lag" in giving direction. not sure the lag is caused by poor gps reception or there is another problem with the gps unit.
ie: the gps advise turn left ... my wife said ... what left the road is straight. i told her already turn just now. my wife complain then the gps is useless as it suppose to guide the driver ... hahaha
Thanks for your feedback. I was still thinking of getting the Garmin 255W GPS a month ago, now better reverts back to old fashioned wayC3P0;508024 said:Yes, sometimes I have the same problems too. Anyway, I gave up using the GPS after I tried it once to go somewhere in Pasir Ris and got lost completely. Not used to it.
So now I stick back to my hardcopy street directory. Very Ah Pek, old fashion, but nevermind, if got chio bu beside me, I will pretend to use the GPS and impress them!
Anyway, serious, Singapore so small, if we are very familiar with roads, hardly will use GPS. But I keep it for my sister who just passed her driving.
