Cricketics Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 how would GPS work in India???? there are no proper names of the streets. anywayz, this is how it will work i guess u insert an address "9218 shalimar bagh, new delhi" and here is how it will respond - "Aage waali gali se left li jiye. fir udhar jo Mochi baitha hai udhar se Right le. Waha par jo Aaata Chakki waala hai, uski dukaan se jo gali dikh rahi hai, waha se siidha jayein aur Mandir ki taraf gaadi ghumaye. Waha par Rickshaw waalein stand hai waha se siidha siidha jatein rahe aur daye haat par aapka ghar aa jayega" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THX_1138 Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 i will sell you a GPS device that i made from a HoneyComb truck tracking device... but i dont know if it will work in india, it should since GPS satellites now map the entire globe. moreover, this is an illegal sale, so dont expect tech support.

No antenna nothing. You just have to be careful to buy a mobile that comes with free maps.Usually Nokia charge extra to download maps where as Samsung provides u the maps and application free ... My mobile http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i560-2154.php here are the smileys :weights::weights::weights::weights::weights::weights: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
