|
|
I have an Acer N35 which is very bad at keeping time - i.e loses 10 minutes every hour or so. I mainly use it to run TomTom 5, which as it uses GPS has access to the correct time. But unfortunatly there doesn't seem to be an easy way I can find to use this data to keep the Acer in sync. Anybody got any ideas? |

Have a look at GPSdash2 at http://gpsdash.com/
I have found it a great alternative to using TTN5 when not needing navigation. There is a setting that keeps your PPC clock synchronised with the GPS. |

Thanks, looks interesting. Especially if combined with GpsGate : http://franson.com/gpsgate/, so that in theory you could have both applications running simultaneously. GpsGate isn't free, but the Express version is only US$7.47 at the moment!
Perhaps a bit of overkill just to achieve time sync though! _________________ TomTom Go 710. |
