I have emailed TomTom and Navigon and they both said wouldn't work with our A701. I guess the A701 is just too new and they don't wanna say for sure as I heard TomTom and Navigon worked fine with other countries. Anyway, I called Microsoft and they told me the Pocket Street 2005 should work fine becuase it designed for Windows Mobile 2003SE or "later". I'm gonna give it a shot and see how much luck I have, will post the update in here.
I just purchased the Mitac Mio A701 and love everything about it, but I am experiencing a major functional issue and want to know if anyone has experienced the same:
I find that when I enable bluetooth for my handsfree carkit, the GPS with car navigation becomes inaccurate.
If I then disable bluetooth the GPS works properly again.
I'm hoping that if this is a valid issue, a ROM update in the near future will sort it out?!
Does anyone known the read/write speed of the SD/MMC Slot?
I have installed tomtom navigator 5 in my a701 and its not working. It keeps on saying no GPS device. I have selected other bluetooth device and GPS_HWCOM on the configuration. Can anyone help please.
Thanks
Does Navigon MN5 works properly with A701/Winows Mobile 5.0 in U.S.? Anyone tried it and know about the installion, please post. Many Thanks!!!
Did not come with the user manual for the MIO A701. Anyone know where I can down load one at. Also how do you use the speed dial, I have added the numbers but when i touch them it does not dial like my siemens SX66 did.
Many thanks,
Singh
to use tomtom 5 select gpshw_com not com4.
does anybody know how to make the GPS pickup signal faster in the Mio? what settings do you do for tom tom navigator 5?
I have installed tomtom navigator 5 in my a701 and its not working it keeps on saying to GPS device and I tried to change to all the possible com-ports and its not doing a thing I really need help anyone please!!!
I have installed navigon NM5 on my A701 but when I run the program my device ID does not appear therefore I cannot register or use the program. Can anyone advise me ?
Been using my A701 for just over a week, running both TomTom & Memory Map without any problems. Excellent Phone/PDA. Just one issue with the stylus, the first broke in the unit, but managed to claw it out, so be careful!! It's not robust and is prone to break. Would have prefered it on top as well, I am looking for an alternative stylus that fits the unit.
I am currently using Iguidance software with my mio and I can't get it to work does anybody know how to do it orjust how to turn on the GPS on this unit?
Just got my A701. Its fantastic.Loaded Navigon MN5 Navigation. Works really well. Better than Tom Tom.
got my A701 - nice kit, bit having great probs syncing it with exchange 2003 server - wont let you install any certificates, although this is a WM5 prob i think!??
I'd be interested in a comparison of the Mio A701 and the E-Ten G500. They are quite similar. The main differences as far as I can tell are that the G500 has voice command software, quad-band, and TMC function, but a mini-SD slot rather than SD. Does anyone know if this mini-SD is sdio capable for adding WIFI? The mio SD slot is SDIO.
On paper, then, the E-Ten looks like it offers a bit more, but I'd have to see a complete review of both to be sure.
Hi congrats on your new phone! I was wondering, my car has bluetooth built in for handsfree voice dialing, without voice dialing on the phone, will the cars voice dialing still work? Thanks in advance.
got mine on sat 11 march. put TomTom 5 on it, works like a charm, only drawback apart from no wifi , is no voice dialing. i also think the stylus is a bit weak, other than that its an exelent peice of hardware, would give it 9/10. got mine at http://www.superetrader.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=375
It's available in a few UK stores that will ship overseas. It's actually officially in stock in most stores. I bought mine from clove.co.uk
I'll post more when I get it.
Is this phone really coming out or that company just trying to fool the stock market?
I like this phone and think it's a great phone. However, I've been waiting for more than 3 months already. Now it's mid March already. I am really wondering about this phone will they come to US
is this GPS sirf star III can receive TMC ?
