Garmin Mobile XT Rip off

[VC-1]

Yes I agree that the Samsung B7330 is a lovely Windows Mobile OS phone with GPS Receiver. Please note that "Garmin Mobile XT On The Move" Gps application is advertised and sold as "For Life" on a Micro SD Card from "Cape Union Mart" for R600, but here comes the catch - GPS is for Life Time Use BUT NOT UPDATEABLE - YOU HAVE TO PURCHASE A NEW MICRO SD CARD ANNUALLY to update the maps !!!!!!

Sound like the RAPE of the word FREE by the cellphone netrworks. Interesting. Hmmmmmm.

Now this phone becomes a No,No for me. Hold on to your I900/I780 as long as you can

I agree. That is just not right.
How can they expect R600 per annum?
Wouldn't one get a new (low budget) GPS for R600? That updates?

Stupid taxes are everywhere these days...

So where is this approach any different to how they have been screwing us over since their inception. Yes, it's BS.

Edit: Maybe you should have posted this in the cellular section, nice heads-up for the peeps on that side too.
