Not Android kenot use Garmin..It's more like when Garmin going to provide a navigation software using Android platform...Rumours since last year is that they suppose to roll out Garmin Android sometime mid or 3rd quarter of 2009..but now already 4th quarter wor...Instead of Android, they are now concentrating on the JV wth asus on their own Nuvi phone..currently on Linux 7 winmo platform....Garmin MXT is dead liao.

Papago is abit faster in this they enter Android market faster & smarter... biggrin.gif ..For sure lotsa GPS phone enthusiast will jump ship soon..

QUOTE(Darkmage12 @ Nov 27 2009, 05:20 AM)
Android cannot use garmin right? only papago and google maps?

The GPS discussed here is Garmin MXT installed inside any Nokia Symbian GPS enabled phone hor...Not the stand alone Nuvi or dedicated GPS receiver such as Gamrin 60Csx hor...

Suggest you get any Nokia GPS enabled phone can dy

Saru..replied your PM..I'm not into windows CE version. Me only into Symbian & Windows Mobile.

Try search inside both malsingmaps & malfreemaps forum relating to windows CE.

Futhermore, this thread is only for symbian.

I reckon these smartphone has some sort of "memory". Once you got satellite lock while standing at Location A, then switched off GPS and switched on again, it can re-acquire satellite lock within seconds. But once you move to another Location B that is a few kilometer away, ti will take a couple of minutes. Once I went to Location C that is a thousand kilometer away, it took about 5 minutes or more on my E52. Of course not using AGPS.

For better accuracy get the external antenna or re-radiating antenna if you don't have the socket.
