Bluetooth GPS?
David Jenkins - 9/7/08 at 11:33 AM

Has anyone tried those bluetooth GPS units? They're cheap , and I fancy using one occasionally with my phone, which has Google Maps on it. At the moment that will give my location to within a given radius from the nearest transmitter.

Any good or bad experiences?

If you have a smart phone or one capable of running windoze mobile you can get tom tom mobile (let me know if you want a copy) then its just like having a proper GPS unit.

I use my phone (which has a GPS reciever built in) as sat nav quite regularly. Blue tooth GPS recievers tend to work quite well too.

I have a Nokia N73 running Symbian - so I don't think the TomTom software will fit!
