hmm... why cannot a?

Upcoming phones such as W760 and the C702 will have GPS, as far as I know.

And the GPS Enabler costs around RM399 at Ericserv. Just asked shan about it yesterday.

Google Maps - available for J2ME

Google Maps are not that accurate. Plus, it's going to charge you a lot unless you have unlimited 3G or something like that.

So far only phone with Symbian or Windows Mobile can install the GPS program. As for the phone model that TS mention, it cannot installl the program. I believe those phone model mentioned by TS need Java program to run and I haven't seen any Java based GPS program.

google map is the only java based program if i am not mistaken...

how about wayfinder?

I install this application not so much as GPS device on my phone but rather as mobile map. Just go and download mobile GMaps ( Java software )and install in your phone Here and go here to map out the area of google map you want to download and it will create a .map file. Go herehere to download Gmapmaker and download the cache file of google map. If you want more detail the file can go up to level 17 and the cache file for KL alone is about 200+ mb. With this you can have a FREE mobile map and possibly GPS without having to access GPRS data for map cache.

wow..200MB++ ? Can feature phone load in such huge map file?

Well i believe there is no problem as i have 400 mb cache for KL alone and i m using motorola ming a1200.. ( the cache taken almost 80% of my 1g micro sd card ) The only thing is you must transfer the cache file using usb card reader rather as it also takes a while if you use usb 1.0 device.

lol where u stay bro .... i go over to ur place to copy the cache

It is not difficult to create your own cache file. Just customise yourself better...Here is some screenshot..

good! i will follow your way DL the cache try load to my SE feature phone

wont it be lagging badly?

pls post detail instruction, i cant understand , thanks..

as fair i know if you can pair bluetooth gps device to Se phone, with a proper java application it can be used. but i couldnt find any compatible software yet

edit : i noticed the new upcoming se phone G or was it C 905 using a java app right? maybe thats compatible with our normal phone?

anyone can verify this?

the method cy97 provided seems like interesting, but i not understand.

so does any1 knows how to use the blue tooth to make the GPS funtion ??

i believe u haf to pair with the bluetooth gps receiver as an accessories or so to use it..

yes. it is called the sony ericsson gps enable headset - HGE-100
last week i asked at sony ericsson store at the gardens.
