MessageBrian - I have TALKS premium, but can't see mini GPS amongst the additional aps, there are five extra programmes, but no minni GPS. Also, can you guide me to where I might find the manual for the premium aps?

Damon, that's exactly how it works, you are right. For example, I go out in the car most days, and we always go back through Haydock which is about ten minutes from home. So I interrogated mini GPS to tell me the current cell value. I renamed it to the current location, then set it to send a text message to my wife to ask her to pour me a glass of red wine. So now, when we reach that location, that's what happens! She gets an appropriate text! Now to Andy's question. The fact is you need talks premium. If you have that, you get the manual which explains everything extremely clearly.

From what I gather, and I warn you I haven't used it, instead of using a GPS receiver attached to your phone, what it does is tell you about the cell transmitter you're closest to. i.e. your cell phone is connected to a transmitter at all times when switched on and in range. It might be worth experimenting with Mini GPS, dropping a marker the next time you're at the bus stop you want to find, then seeing if it gives you good or useful warning the next day when you return. When it moves into the range of the transmitter you have flagged up as important, it will tell you. Trouble is, if bus stops are close together where you live, and cell transmitters are far apart, it definitely won't work. I reckon Mini GPS is likely to work best on intercity trains to give you a vague idea of your upcoming station and to rouse you if you're sleeping ;) ----- Original Message ----- From: Andy Collins To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, September 15, 2005 7:30 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Wayfinder perhaps?

Hi all - I use a bus route regularly, and I need to know when I'm at my stop. Is wayfinder the best tool for this job, if so, what actually do I need, where from, and what wil it cost me?
