Re: Sony StreetMate GPS System
Date: Fri, 8 Jun 2001 13:49:48 -0700 From: "Michael Berlant" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: Sony StreetMate GPS System I have been using my trusty Libretto 60 with various US and Japanese software packages since 1995. I also just purchased a new car here in the US last September with a built-in package. They are both wonderful, each in its own right. The Libretto is more portable and the built-in is more accurate. With the laptop software, you only get a signal from the GPS receiver, which is only as accurate as Selective Availability (now mostly released), propagation distortion, foliage and multipath allow. This may skew your position from reality by several hundred yards. As I have traveled around the US and Japan, I have gotten accustomed to being my own DGPS, applying the correction in my mind to the arrow on the map. The car navigation system built into my car integrates the GPS signal with the roadways on the map and the rotation and direction of the front tires. By applying logic to those three input sources, the system continually adjusts my position on the map to within a few feet of true. Unfortunately, I can't carry my car on a business trip on the other side of the country or world. So, I happily pack my Libretto and its ETAK card and go off to points unknown.

I'm planning on selling my L100 in the next few weeks (still need to back up my data, clean off all the junk I've got on the hard drive, reinstall windows 98 and drivers, and get all the bits and pieces togther). Does anyone have any idea what it's all worth (and does anyone want to buy it). I was planning on advertising it here and on some of the newsgroups for a week or so before putting it on ebay. By the way I live in the UK and would prefer to make the sale here (can meet in person in Cambridge or London to reduce postage and show that everything works), but if necessary, I will ship abroad (at buyer's expense). Here's what I've got: * L100 (complete, never been overclocked, UK keyboard, all standard bits) with 6GB HDD and 64MB memory. * Extra high capacity battery. * Original 2GB HDD. * Xircom RealPort 56K Modem & 10/100 Ethernet combo card. * Freecom DVD-ROM (~2 months old - still have receipt). * Margi DVD-to-Go card (~2 months old - bought off ebay, so no TV dongle) * REX card (PC card PDA) * Caselogic bag. * Will reinstall trial (no CD or license, just confirm that you have them, will buy them or will delete them after evaluation) versions of Office 97, 98lite, Sidekick 98 (great with the REX card), utilities (WinZip, WinAmp, Audiograbber) and games (Quake, MAME plus ~1500 ROMS, most Infocom adventures) as requested. Based on what I've seen on ebay I'd guess at about £600 + shipping (libretto + extras @ $500 + DVD-to-Go @ $100 + DVD-ROM @ $150 + Modem/NIC @ $70 + REX @ $30 = $850 and 1 GBP = 1.38 USD = 615 GBP). I'll be sad to see it go (need bigger screen and faster CPU for software development work). Cheers, Phil Spencer. This communication is for informational purposes only.

I don't know why it should partition differently in a >different machine, but I'll trust you =) Actually, I may not be putting it >in my desktop at all, since I plan on getting a PCMCIA CD drive. > If you partition on a desktop machine, if you say 'yes' to the question 'use all available space', that's what you'll get. If you do it on the libretto, because it needs a space at the end of the drive to keep the hibernation data on, the BIOS lies to dos regarding just how big 'all' is - so that bit doesn't get allocated and is never written to. If you don't do this, windows will work fine for days, weeks, or months depending on how often you hibernate and how much data you save to disk - but sooner or later a file will be in the same place as the hibernation wants to be - and will find itself in an ass-kicking competition with a centipede. The hibernation will work, but your data won't survive. Oh dear :) Once you've formatted in the lib, you can take the disk to another machine because the partition table will indicate the size of the partitioned area, and you'll only see the missing bit if you try and format it again. (In the same way that a desktop disc can have eg half windows and half linux - dos will only report on the windows bit of it).
