I think Ireland is very poorly served where maps are concerned.
GPS in Ireland
Hello,
I know of 3 program's that you could use, as Ireland does have bad navigation software available.
The first is TomTom's Routeplanner of UK & Ireland, which I use (it is quite cheap) It has every back-road & town in the country, it does not re-route but it does have a scrolling map and shows you exactly where you are, and all you have to do is follow the shaded line and you know you are on the right track.
The second is www.Mapopolis.com. Dublin/Cork is very well covered down to every street. There are two versions available a navigation and an enhanced version (similar to the routeplanner). The country has limited coverage, but all National & and most regional roads are covered. The good news is that there is a demo version available to see (9 days worth)
The third is Destinator 3 (expensive) I know it does cover Ireland but to what extent I do not know, but the screen shot's in 3-D mode look great! Look at this link:
http://www.ietechsmart.com/gpsindex1.1.htm
They are based in Dublin and claim full coverage of Ireland. I have seen this advertised in the UK for approx €180+VAT see:

Look at the Destinator demo on:

Hope this helps

Xdaere, please email me, I forgot all about the maps thing, I have the latest maps and the export tool from medion/navtech, all Ireland is there down to street level. You need WM2003 to run the program I think.
Forgot to say, it is also full voice navigation.

US Frequency Bands Product Release

I have ordered a US version of the touch diamond, which supposedly has the appropriate 3G 850/1900 MHz band support, from on the go solutions. The order is due to ship on September 5. I'm curious as to to whether anyone else has an order pending or if anyone has seen an American-banded unit with an earlier availability date.
I haven't heard of an earlier date but I did contact On the Go Solutions to find out if they were on track for a September 5th ship. I received three emails from their reps (seems like they don't track questions very well!) and all told me either the 5th or the 8th, depending on how long the shipment takes to clear customs. I'm surprised there isn't more excitement on this board about US 3G for this device!
I've already bought and sold a Touch Pro since I didn't want to hold out for the Elite team to see if they could unlock US 3G but I may have to pull the trigger on the Diamond. I'll just have to get over the keyboard thing...

Any N1 users here in Korea?

I'll be in Cheju, South Korea for a week in September and will have my N1 with me. When I was in England last year I was able to just pick up a local prepaid SIM card for very little and have phone / internet the two weeks I was there. Can this be done in Korea?
Any suggestions as to staying connected?
Thanks!

Overseas Assistance

Greetings,
Long time iOS user who's looking to switch to Android while I'm stationed in Japan (US Navy) for the next two years. That said, I'm presently visiting Korea and have an opportunity to purchase a Note 5 (unlocked) and bring it back to Japan with me. Unfortuantely, I can't seem to find a good breakdown of compatibilty to see if it'll be as effective and easy to use as if I were to just get a S6straight from one of the Japanese carriers.
I'm requesting assistance from the experts here to see:
1. Will an unlocked Note 5 work on all the LTE bands in Japan, specifically DoCoMo.
2. How easy is it to take a phone that's unlocked and start a new contract in Japan (bought new/from the company when I was last here).
Thank you in advance!
