Yes, thanks Chris, Solid state does make the difference........
However I have dropped my iPhone a few times and my compass seems to have stuffed up. Does not work no matter how many times I have done the infinity sign.
I guess a drop is different to vibrations.....
Your statement however makes me think I will contact one of his friends who is into 4WD and a bit of a techno dude..So i'm sure he has one of them mounted on his dash!!!!!

Thanks for the reminder hehehhehehe

Any other comments would be great ! The more the better to convince him its OK....
Cheers
