Hi I have just received my XDA 11s, and this is my first post. Has anyone used the dual sim adaptor (DIGITAL Dual Sim III form 2 phones in 1)?

If you have does it work ok or are there some issues?

Also I would like to use sat nav. I have no experience with this in any form. What In your opinion would be the best system? I would like to use it for in-car and walk about in towns etc.

How do you keep the maps updated? Do you have top keep buying updates?

Thanks for any help sorry if the questions are a bit boring

Cheers

I sue the "King of Dual SIM" adapter and I like it because it does not require you to cut the SIMS. It works fine & only cost about £10 from eBay

I use TomTom5 for SatNav - it allows walking route to be planned (not that I use them) and with a suitable GPRS connection, live (ish) traffic updates (subject to a yearly subscription). The traffic link has saved me a few times, but it ain't perfect.

You can also get traffic camera databases for teh common satnav systems (inc tomtom) & updates can be downloaded from the tomtom website
