| 380317 | 2005-08-11 09:41:00 | Has anyone got this working with clear & in focus views of streets & houses? If so, how did you do it? PJ | Poppa John (284) | ||
| 380318 | 2005-08-11 10:26:00 | That bit only works in certain areas, eg the middle of Auckland, Brisbane, main cities, etc. | FoxyMX (5) | ||

| 380325 | 2005-08-11 22:19:00 | Is it worth it? Hi Oxie, Not sure whether you are on dialup or not but if you are then I wouldn't bother as it would take forever for the images to render. If you are on ADSL then it is worth a look. The tribe here thoroughly enjoyed playing with it until the novelty wore off a few days later after which it was then uninstalled. It would have been more interesting if it had more areas that we could really zoom in on but as I said previously, only Auckland had a small section on NZ's map. Likewise with other places like Sydney and Brisbane - I was disappointed to not be able to hone in on friends and relatives backyards. :p |
