Chronicles of Na

I’ve become completely lost in my search for the Holy Grail of GPS navigation devices. Reading review after review of different products on the market I’ve yet to settle on one I like. All my research has led me to believe that products that are on the market now are still very first-generation which are peppered with shortcomings in technology, usability, and features. I’ve been pretty out dated on my tech toy knowledge and I find myself struggling to get caught up.

Do I go for a multi-function device? (PDA/GPS combo)
Do I get a high-end PDA and add GPS via Bluetooth and software?
Do I get a dedicated device just for my car?

Just posting this so I don’t have to look for it everytime I need it.

1. Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit return. Scroll
down and look for the following entries:

network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests

Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time.
When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really
speeds up page loading.

2. Alter the entries as follows:

Set “network.http.pipelining” to “true”
Set “network.http.proxy.pipelining” to “true”
Set “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once.

3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer.
Name it “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0″.
This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it recieves.

If you’re on a brodband connection you’ll load pages 2-30 times faster now.
