no problem at all... even for a phone GPS has no issue, i dont see why a dedicated GPS unit will have problem.

actually yes, GMXT allows you to choose the format of keying in the GPS coordinates as you prefered. Best of all, no need to do maths! :

1) Go to "Settings"

on top of the answers given above, you may go to Nokia 5800xm's FAQ page on GPS issues, since you're using 5230 which is similar to 5800xm.

goodluck.

I was wondering since we're nearer to the satellite, shouldn't the gps signal is clearer too? Until i remember that yeah, it's the speed that the gps device fail to catch up with... I was on airasia flight to and fro langkawi.
