Route Calculation Time....

Trucker · Posted: Tue Sep 23, 2003 9:22 pm Post subject:

Well I've run the new route on both machines and the results are as follows.

iPAC 3970 TTN2 v2.22 Lexar 128mb SD

calc time 1hr 3min 50sec
Dist 836.7 miles
Time 14hr 21min 50sec

iPAC 3950 TTN2 v2.04 Transcend 128mb SD

calc time 4min 8sec
Dist 836.7 miles
Time 14hr 23min 55sec

That's a massive diference between two virtualy identical machines, especially considering that Julie is running an older version on her 3950 as well.

Don't know if you mentioned that already but have you made sure to install the SDIO driver update for the 3970 (assuming you are running PocketPC 2002)?

Anybody as a clue about the release of the fix for SD in other languages other than english??

Thanx

This fix shouldn't have any locale specific stuff in it - can you try and install it on your italian machine?

I tried already, it tells me wrong country Crying or Very sad

I really don't understand why HP does this to all the non english speaking clients out there, we probably are second class people :D

Anyway thanx for your help.

Regards,

Corrado Steri

Corrado,

through the grapevine I have heard that before the end of the year there will be another ROM upgrade fro the 397x (in all languages) that will incorporate the SD fix. Don't lose your patience...

Lutz

I was able to do some interesting comparisons as I am just transferring over to the 2210 from my Ipaq 3630 and will be removing it from the 3630 as soon as I get all the cables for the 2210.

3630 with TTN2 V2.22 and 256MB Compact Flash
5min 50 secs, 798miles, 13hr 35min

2210 with TTN2 V2.24 and the above 256MB Compact Flash
2min 17 secs, 1284.3Km (oops!) 13hr 35min

Same 2210 with TTN2 V2.24 and 256MB SD Card
5min 0 secs, 1284.3Km 13hr 35min

It amazed me that CF was over twice as fast as the SD card in the same device. Both are formatted as FAT and are defragmented. Also the 2210 is twice as fast as my 3630.

CF is a lot faster than SD. This is something I've seen consistently in my tests over the past year with MMC and SD cards.

OK, I'm bored so I tried this using Garmin's Mapsource my 733 Mhz Pentium PC. (Cheating, I know)... Laughing

Land's End Hotel to John O'Groats Passenger Ferries

Calculation took just 5 seconds. Distance is: 839 miles and takes 14 hours 5 minutes. (fastest route)

Bizzarely, if I tell it to avoid highways then it says to drive to Liverpoolthen take the ferry from Liverpool-Belfast-Troon then drive to Aberdeen and take the Aberdeen-Stromness(Orkney)-Scrabster ferry before driving to John O'Groats. Thumbs Up

Total 1013 miles, Time 1 day, 22 hours, 49 minutes and 38 seconds. (Approximately).

This is a cool thread when you're bored at work and got nothing else to do Smile

I've just had a go at the route and got the following results:

Ipaq 5555 overclocked to 528MHz ;)
Lexar 256Mb SD card
TTN2 2.24, GPS 2.08
Default speeds

Total Distance: 836.7 miles
Total Duration: 14:22:00

Calculation time: 2m10s - not bad for an SD card Thumbs Up

The speed certainly is useful when going off course, reroutes that used to take up to 10 secs on lesser machines fly through in less than 5 secs with this one!
