N95 doesn't give you speed traps in SA...find out about the garmin properly i think it does show you permanent cameras but obviously not all will be seen as it doesn't actually detect the traps but rather relies on a database.you have a point on the fact that the phone does indeed detect changes in reception but the number of possible interferances with the same pattern would be too great to actually decipher which one is a laser interfering resulting in way too many false warnings.btw i'm not a hater like that other dude i'm just tryin to point out some things you need to take into account...oh and if you do succeed i'll be your first customer for the program

Hi falcon. Get ur point on the interference part. Yes filtering the laser interference will b a big challenge. There is so many factors to consider and thats y its my priority project a.t.m. Already did some simple interference tests in a well known speedtrap area. Gonna lose some sleep on this one. Loving every minute!

If the N95 can't even pick up 3G phone frequencies in the U.S., to you think it will magically find radar or laser signals!? C'mon, really! It doesn't have the necessary hardware. No software will make up for this. It's like saying you're going to turn your
AMC Pacer into a
Ferrari with some clever software mods. Dial the number, quick!

@wap, afaik a mobile as such with an app can't detect interferences...
i think you need some special hardware for that... some detector sort of thing... go thru the web, you'll find some useful lit...
.
seeing your enthusiasm, i'm pretty sure that you'll end up with some good stuff...
best wishes for your project...

For the love of God, please STOP this nonsense! Hell, I want to detect radar with a potatoe and two paperclips, but that ain't happening either. "Adding 5 0"s to this string...." ?!! WTF are you people smoking? If you think you're going to detect radar waves with any phone you need help. Seriously.

I have Wayfinder and TomTom.
Wayfinder is rubbish as a warning system, that's why I bought TomTom which will remind you of static cameras and average speed cameras ihave to drive thousands of miles a year and cannot afford to lose my licence due to a momentary lapse.
The only infallible way to avoid hand helds is behave properly,
I am in the motorsport business and my advice is race on the track NOT the street, in my experience very few street drivers ability's match those of their vehicles (no matter what they think!!!) it was the main reason why my recovery business used to do so well!!!!

So please tell me about this Tom Tom u speak so fondly sir. Is it a device or app? How much did it cost and how do 1 get hold of it? Fill me in pls. Thanx
Hi I have been away for while
(I was in Finland and they take road safety serioulsy there, they breathalised everyone coming out of a motorsport event this weekend!!! I wish the UK cops had the guts and power to do it here it would save many lives)
TomTom, is both HW and SW take a look at
www.tomtom.com I bought the Navigator 6 product and installed it on my P990 its very good.

@nitro
you should see closing time here in Ireland: the local cops walk from pub to pub to make sure everyone's out by midnight, and then they watch them stumble towards their cars...wtf "good night, paddy"...i've actually seen a cop help some drunk search for his car keys

We've just launched a service in SA called SMS Radar,
basic idea is to join an area you drive and start getting tips from other drivers sent over SMS to the system.
so you join Cape Town, then whenever you see any police acting dodgy (hiding in the bushes trapping) you write in an sms where you saw him and send to 33245.
then all members in the CT area will get an sms with your alert.
we've made it free while we get suggestions and perfect the system.
then we'll make it R1 to get an alert (always free to tip).
before we start billing we'll warn everyone in a free sms, so all you sms sceptics out there can roll your eyes and bail out
check it out, write suggests to
support@smsradar.co.za if you like
