Yes, GPS on planes was fun. Did my first tracking in '97 using a Magellan on KLM flight from Jakarta CGK to KL Subang. Watching the latitude hitting '0' was cool. :-)
Pls see my travelogues at http://naim.my - THANKS!

When I said resist, I actually meant 'weakly resist'. :mrgreen: The Qstarz has gotten a status like what Amex used to be... 'Never leave home without it.'
