Give Waze a try, don't expect it to be perfect, but the more you get involved in the community and map editing the more you'll get out of it.
Waze is a pretty cool product, but don't forget that th ... |

That's a lot of unsolved crime in York.
Probably '1211' is 12th November when it was first reported, then '0190491' will be a sequential number
Still, that's 190,491 crimes reported on that day ... |

Thank you. Any idea how much more accurate the system will be compared to USA system?
They reckon around 1 meter accuracy.
The most important thing is that Galileo will be a civilian system run ... |

| No, look at the absolute numbers. In use, it's on a par with the iPhone 4, despite the more powerful processors. If you need a phone which will sit for 8 days on standby, never mind 12, then you don't ... |

Yeah, but the difference between 7 and 8 hours talk time is a bit academic to me. I'd prefer an improved standby time but it looks like they have lost about 30% off the standby.

So in use 4S is mostly the same or better. I think they made the point that 3G talk time was better.

| The GPS spec of the 4S appears to be the same as the 4. Yes, the quoted standby hours for the 4S are "up to 200 hours" as opposed to the "up to 300 hours" of the 4, but I'm not sure that is relevant t ... |

No, that could be classed as a security issue. Live with it.

Most drivers, including myself, tend to be nearer to 50, or slightly higher along these 3 clear lanes.
