    is it "All iPhones"  even the older ones like iPhone 7 etc ?

    Do  all iPhones have it in the new software ?

     

    Thats the reason  this will work so much better than the Tile trackers

     

    GPS would probably be better but you need cell  service and the battery needs to be recharged often on the GPS trackers, .

     

    I think I will order one  soon.... OK , just  ordered one for  Bestbuy , 32 US$ delivered  in the

    The thing that’s different with the airtags is that they communicate with all iPhones when they are out of range of your own items so you should be able to find them more easily.

  3. Hi ,  thanks for the info ,

     

    the only Apple devises in my "crowd" are my iPad and my friends sons iPhone , 

    and  I do not take my iPad with me all the time !

     

    We would like to use them as cheap trackers for our cars and a motorbike ,  and if we needed a location the son can be called and he could check.

     

    I had the Samsung tracker that was on LTE and it never did work right ,  

     

    Hope these work better !

    There is a small shop on Chan Road near the fire station in Chongnonsi, Bangkok that stocks a range of parts for both Benz and BMW from around the 90's to early 2000. The owner is in his 80's but speaks good english Its a bit like stepping back in time when you go into the shop. Apologies  can't post a pic as I am in Hua Hin.   

    Thanks , I need a few things

    So this may well be State to State dependent.

     

    But even though the shot itself is free you may well  be asked for insurance information.

     

    This is a script that the providers ask, but as part of the CARES act it's not required to get the shot.

     

    So just be prepared for that question and push back

     

     

    California it is free , on the paperwork it asks if you have insurance , if not thats OK and it goes to the next page .......

     

    but that can change at anytime....

    Nothing beats the original which is available on DVD as a 4 disc collection for a few hundred Baht. 

    yeah   I got them for 3 dvds for  100 baht in Chinatown  years ago ,  good enough quality for a laptop but not a big screen , may be better now ,

  7. I always wondered if the buses were worn out or never tuned up ?

    It always looks like they have one or 2 injectors stuck open and just loading up on extra fuel , 

    that has to cost a lot of money in fuel costs , 

     

    Many of these buses were the old Mercedes powered buses that got a Japanese engine transplant years  ago, 

     

    But I still like taking them ,  you get to see the "real" city thru the smoke .....55555

    only Hisos take  the BTS ....

  8. Looking for something like a  NSAID gel ,  Voltaran (diclofenac) or ??? for ankle pair relief .

    There was a show on BBC about pain relief  and Voltaran , I had never heard of it in the USA , 

    But it seemed like a good idea to just rub it on my ankle instread of taking asprin etc that would go thru my whole body!

     

    So is this worthwhile ? Is there a Thai brand ?

    And are there other NSAID in gel form that go thru your skin ?

     

    Thanks for your advise

     

  9. BBC Click show had something about 5G last week 

     

    it seems great for cities , but the signal does not go very far so you need 1000s of base stations , too many to put out in the countryside , 

     

    Plus it does not go thru buildings etc very well.....

     

    if this info is correct I do not see it as a big plus except in areas that have enough money and people to make it pay off...

     

    But yes its VERY fast.......

     

    More interesting is the new GPS the japanese are doing that will get down to a few inches of where you are at ,  this will help with self driving cars and farm equipment......
