But why do I need wide screen?
Surely when i am travelling, I need tall screen? Forgive me, but my route goes ahead of me.

Many people would like the option of being able to put the status bar up the side of the screen in stead of along the bottom, perhaps that is what will happen in the next version of the software.
Equally, I quite like the ability to see what is either side of my given route, PoI's shortcuts etc. The wide screen allows this to a much greater extent than my little 300. |

QUOTE (Fellwalker @ May 13 2007, 09:56)  Surely when i am travelling, I need tall screen? Forgive me, but my route goes ahead of me. That's true, of course - and I would have reasoned the same way. I've had a 910 for a year though, and the landscape mode screen does seem to be the right choice. Your route goes ahead of you, but you turn to the left and right. Simon. |
