Have been trying to find a pool cover as is normally used around the world, but no luck. Also one of those solar covers to keep the pool from loosing too much heat. Yes, I know it's hard to believe, but the pool really gets cold these days.

Anybody heard about these covers?

Thanks,

Just called Norway by Skype. Works ok, but maybe traffic is low at this time.

Sorry, I haven't tried in BKK yet, but the map looks good. So if it performs like it have done so far, I believe it would work. But of course, as mentioned above, narrow Soi's could be a problem with the internal antenna. And all the one way streets, it have to be tested. You can also try this website;

it's in Thai and have a lot of information. They answer in English if you have any questions and it looks like they have done really extensive tests.

Mine did, but I have read somewhere that some have had problems with that in Mercedes. Maybe they use special glass? Mine was a Toyota by the way, tinted glass with light tinted film inside. Actually, I was a bit surprised that it could get that good signals. Only problem is in narrow streets, then an external antenna would be helpful.

At the shop they also had an antenna with the GPS built in. Just connect to your laptop. I was thinking about that one first, but no, my laptop is too big for that use.

I bought a Garmin iQue M5 at TukCom in Pattaya a few months ago. It’s a pocket pc with built in GPS, car kit included. Complete Thailand map.

Used it up to a village outside Surin via some national parks, and it took me all the way to the doorstep. Had problem once only, and that was because of major roadwork. I am very impressed of the details, even street navigation in Pattaya. Haven't had the chance to test it in Bangkok yet.

I am about to build a house these days, and will go for the fibreglass type. Can be seen here: http://www.siamfiberglass.com/SFG_eng/images/NEW_SFG/06.JPG

maybe an idea to print it and show the guys at the shop.
