Does anybody here use Co-Pilot 6 with the Exec, if you do comments would good on, installation, use etc
CoPilot 6
I would tell you if only ALK would provide the upgrade. They have been offering the upgrade since October 21 but all attempts to take advantage of the offer have been met with silence or an auto responder welcoming you to a customer support queue!
I am beginning to assume that there are no real people at ALK Europe.
Any suggestions for alternative software from a company that likes its customers?
Thats strange, I have emailed there customer support a couple of times and they replied very promptly unlike NAVMAN and TOM TOM who never bothered to reply. That's one one of the main reason why I'm interested in the Co-pilot because there customer support appeared better. Now you've got me thinking.
actually where did you bought it from ?
I cannot find any seller right now ? Seems that they will fit me best because of the eastern maps.
I'll let you know
I've been using Copilot since vedrsion 4. It's always proven to be a great and dependable product for me. I have ordered version 6 which seems like a perfect fit for the Universal. According to the e-mail I received, version 6 is supposed to ship tomorrow, so I will let you know next week how it works.

It is advertised on the Co-Pilot web site that T-Mobile is a seller, I guess the operator you spoke didn't realise. Would not be the first time the customer service people didn't know what the company there work for sells.
Have you spoken with ALK
copillot 6 and t mobile
Here the answer fromAlk :
Thank you kindly for your mail. As of today T-Mobile has started offering the MDA Pro with CoPilot Live 6 as a tight bundle. They unfortunately do not sell the CoPilot Live 6 software alone, so if you specifically require this part I suggest selecting an authorised reseller from ALK’s published list at http://www.alk.eu.com/buynow/buy_authoriseddealers.asp. Please let me know if you have additional questions.
On its way
I got a notification that Copilot 6 shipped to me today. I chose ground service, so it won't be here until Friday. I will give you an update then.

I have heard that Co-pilot 6 should be available in stores as of Wednesday! But unfortunately only as a packaged deal with the MDA Pro.
Should be picking my copy up on Wednesday.

It was suppossed to arrive today, but the UPS track indicates that a train was late which delayed it :evil: (I've never seen that before :?: ). Anyway, UPS now has it set for delivery Monday. I will let you know how it works then.

What map version did you get Just the UK or UK and Europe??? and where did you buy from???
Well bit of a long story but - I am getting it for free!
I bought the MDA3 about three months ago and had problems with it within the first 28 days of me having it, when I tried to exchange it in store they didn't have any in stock and T-Mobile were dis-continuing them, so I waited and waited until the PRO came out and because CO-Pilot 5 isnt compatible with the Pro then they have to honour that to be exchanged too!
I would expect it to be UK and Europe as my copy of 5 was UK and Europe and the live version too!
I'll let you know how it goes when I pick it up later!
Ok Picked it up!
First strange thing I noticed was that they have packaged Co-Pilot 6 in a Co-Pilot 5 box ( a bit strange ).
Receive the usual annoying Welcome to Co-Pilot intro.
Seems to work fine in landscape mode.
Switching screens when selecting a button is pretty fast.
Connects to BT GPS OK
Whilst changing POI's application froze ( soft reset required )
Started demo - sound didn't work at first but works after soft reset.
Volume switching OK
3D view smooth
Zoom mode IN/OUT OK
Earphones works OK
Unable to connect to LIVE No Modem at above number when trying to connect via GPRS/3G
Same issue as above with traffic update
MAYBE CAUSED by the demo? will test later when in vehicle
POI's now working
Big finger buttons great!
Quits nice and quick!
Well thats all I got time for at the moment!
Will update as I test!
Copilot 6 has two seperate installations, WM 2003 and WM 5.0. The VGA looks great. Landscape works great. The big buttons are a real plus. It allows you to use the thing without the stylus. I tried to install with the text to speach, and it works, but I hate it, just like I hated the prior versions TTS. I will reinstall with prerecorded promts.
The bluetooth setup was simple and worked flawlessly. I've only had a short time to test it, but so far, I am very satisfied.

HELLO
Recently i have purchased HTC TOUCH CRUISE from USA, but I am working with UNITED NATIONS in Pristina KOSOVO in europe. i have installed Google Navigator on it to find Location GPS sometime working very well some times not !! BUT most of the time it shows Monoco in france Location!!! a mean longtitude and latitude ... ..ADDITIONALLY in kosovo we are using VALA sim card that belong to MONOCO in france telecominicaton based in MONOCO because there isnt any telecomminication service here ..on the street people selling VALA sim card and working very well.....
Any way i have used 2-3 different software to make sure GPS is working precisely but most of the time GPS shows MONOCO Longtitude and Latitude and interesting speed Atitude sometimes in the see close Monoco region ...between MONOCO and KOSOVO takes more than 500km ..so it shows different location . Also i have updated quickgps using local internet same...
so what should be a reason !!! how can i solve this problem...
If you answerr to this post i will be really appriciate!
Thank you in advance !!!
I have bought a HTC new White Diamond.
i want to use the GPS and GPRS but without spending lots of money.../
i m in mumbai i have Vodafone!!,,
can sm 1 recommend me ne free software!~!!!
Hi,
The best free software for GPS is Google Maps for Windows Mobile. But to use it you will have to use the internet connection on your phone which costs...
No, it's not true
the best one is IGO8.3.x.x version...
You don't have to pay nothing for using this software, cause you use satelite for navigation, not internet
if you need this soft, pm me
greetz
IGo
IGo is not free and we don't recommend warez here lol
By the way, if I read correctly, you are in Mumbai so the first step you should take is to check the coverage of your country by the "usual" software and their clones like Igo (miomap), Tom Tom and Garmin and others ....
No need to spent time to install a software on your pda if there is no or poor coverage of your country.
Search for mapmyindia (shareware) on this forum and on ppcwarez. You will get the answer.
For GPRS, call Vodafone Customer Care.
Hello,
I have bought the phone on ebay.com. And my network provider is Vodafone India.
I try to connect to Google Maps by activating GPS in my mobile, but nothing comes up.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

If you're in India, This could be just a simple fix in google maps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=630887
Try that. It allows international maps for google maps. That's all I can think of to help.
All I can figure, is that the previous owner lived in the united states, so google maps was configured to america, but the link above will help you get it internationally. I hope this helps.
