I strongly disagree that cars become more reliable. My 23 year old Corsa-A 
still drives and drives and drives without problems. It will get some 
repairs regularly by a garage where this car is already well known and 
therefor it behaves trustworthy like an old cowboy's horse. But I know 
several persons who bought brandnew cars, got the strangest failures and 
even the suggested garage couldn't find the reason. In one case the car 
stopped abruptly on the highway and none failure could be found! It just 
behaved like being build by Micro$oft: Restart it and everything is OK 
again...

That's inevitable true!

I hope I can help you with that. But it's hard as long as at least basic 
functionalities have problems. For example: What can I do in order to 
expect why I get no results from my GPS? Any suggestions, preferably under 
QtMoko?
