I'll have to disagree with you here. Driving is a "both hands on the wheel" affair. Fondling a GPS unit in your hand, especially inputting things into it while on the move, is akin to texting while...

Agreed![/quote]


The hold-able device is safer, because you bring it into your field of view, whereas the device that's too big to hold while driving requires a holder, which is not where your...

I'm glad I have the 4.0 and not the 5.0. The 5.0 is considerably less usable for one-handed activities, one of which is GPS while driving.

Wow, $60 more for the 4.0? Last time I checked, the 4.0 was about $50 less than the 4.2.
I think the two devices would appeal to different people. If you value sound clarity when listening to it...

Hey, it has a link for "PICS". It's misleading though, as there aren't any images there.


I hope not. Somewhere between 4-5 inches and able to be used one-handed, is the sweetspot for me. If...

I've dropped my SGP 4.0 on pavement while running downhill on my asphalt driveway. The SGP ending up sliding on the screen for approximately 5 feet (I don't remember exactly how far though). The...

I find the hand-held nature of the SGP safer to use than a head unit's display. With the SGP in hand, I can bring it up to where I can see both it and the road at the same time. I also find it...

How can I disable the button lights?

That's really strange terminology, like a bad translation. I've saved pics with the SGP 4.0 and don't believe I would've chosen something that said "share" in order to do it.

Ah but do the pics TRULY end up there - do you see them on the card when examining the card's contents on your computer's desktop?


Good to know about the headphone jack. Hopefully the camera...

My question is: Does the camera actually write to the external card? I'm no expert but, so far, I've heard that no versions of Android can write to an external storage card.

Lack of either a...

Have you considered TuneIn as an alternative app? That works great for me. I've seen people liking it better than iHeartRadio.

I'll probably hold out for an upgrade in the 4" category (definitely interested in cameras running a modern version of Android). If I get anything between that size and ipad-size, it'll probably be...

People should know that the SGP uses the micro SD only to read files put there from an external source. Since Android can't write to the card, there's no advantage in having a card in the SGP that's...

It takes only a little bit longer to get accustomed to interacting with the smaller screen of the 4.0. I'm glad it's not bigger, as it seems to me to be the perfect size.

I chose the 4.0 over the 5.0 and the only thing I'm missing is having ports located at the bottom instead of the top. The 4.2 fixes that problem, fortunately, as well as improves location of the...

It might seem fantastic in a media-player sense. It can't be used for storing your GPS maps, for encoding vids/pics to or any other app-related purpose. Knowing that, I'm glad that I bought only a...

Such a high capacity card doesn't seem useful for Android devices, except for loading up a big mass of files from another computer.
