    A bit of good news. My N95 runs Gamin maps in Peru with 100% success. Loads immediately and connects just asfast. Nokia do not map Peru so cannot comment ontheir software,but GPS is fine for bothdriving and walking. Try Garmin mobile X on you nokia. You willbe plesantly supprised

    Best GPS-enabled mobile phones - iPhone. What a joke.

    Yet only one WinMo is in. WinMo has the biggest range of internet-free pro-like GPS softwares available (TomTom, Garmin, Route 66, you name them).

    BTW Tomtom and Garmin do not need the internet or a plan to work. TomTom on my Touch Pro2 works even without a sim card in.

    Dumb question: does the mobile have to be on a plan for the GPS part to work?

    It sounds like the first company to create a great GPS with a simple phone in it wins. Bugger the camera.

    the cheapest mobile on the market with gps is:
    SonyEricsson z750i
    (Blue Tick), Next-G

    An unlock and flash will help remove the shovelware. Also, go to hidden menu and clear assistance data. Initially needs to download almanac ~ 10 mins in very clear sky, then good 4eva. good inside car, also.

    Yes, advertisement says GPS:no, check Sony Developer website.

    Can anyone recommend a golf gps programme that has front, centre and back of green measurements for a nokia n95

    Are there any phones that have half way decent gps systems in them? I have a Nokia n95, and a O2 orbit. They both take about 10 minute to get a signal. These phones are kind of old. I hope technology has improved since 2yrs ago. I am hoping for something that can get a signal in less than 1 minute. I use gps for walking mostly.
