Dude, it costs more than Rs 2,000 !! (I already have gprs connection and will get 3G provided there is a good airtel plan available. ) The only reason I want some offline maps is for the cases where I am roaming, or connection is not available or slow etc. (Plus it would be cool)..
So anyone using Brut Maps' online capabilities could give me a help ? Also, if possible answer some other doubts I had in the previous post

Can anyone confirm if the bundled player can play AVI files with AC3 5.1 audio tracks (downmixed to stereo of course)?
just wanted to let you guys know that the seller i bought my T-mobile vibrant from has listed a few more on Ebay. Its quite a steal for Rs.20K IMHO. So grab em while they last. The peice i recieved was brand new and i unlocked it using the unlocker app from the market. It doesnt come with the box , headphones , cable , or warranty , but is still a really good deal for the price.

Dude, for 6K-7K more, you can get a brand new Galaxy S with warranty and all accessories.
I believe paying 7K more is totally worth it.
Also, when you buy a new phone with warranty, resale value is also higher.

@raymasky,
That is quite a good deal.(Esp. with some ebay discount coupons) But, it is a CDMA phone right?

well...I'll only think of selling the phone after a year , so warranty would not be an issue during the resale anyways. Its a risk you have to take...but getting the phone for 2/3rds of the retail price (after using Ebay coupons) is quite a steal
.All depends on your risk appetite

@khanvis2009,
Have you given smart keyboard pro a try? You might like it.. (I tried it on the tiny Xperia x10 mini pro and was surprised that it worked so well...But, manually typing space is slowly becoming a PITA..thanks to swype ... )

No it's not a software problem. Samsung can make certain software tweaks to improve GPS performance but it will never be as good as what you can get on other phones. There is no proper fix for Galaxy S GPS issue and it's something even the Samsung guys, whom i talk to regularly, admit.
Also, not all handsets suffer from same degree of GPS issues. Some galaxy S phones, just random phones, perform better, while some others completely fail to lock. May be you got lucky with your Vibrant.
