Hi Steve.

Note though that you can't use your phone's AGPS functionality in conjunction 
with a bluetooth gps receiver *smile*.  You will simply be wasting battery 
power if you have it enabled as wayfinder can only use one gps source.

All the best, Ibrahim.

  Hi Ibrahimn,

   

  Note though that many modern phones have AGPS already in them. So this is not 
so important.

   

  All the best

  Hi Terry.

   

  Talknav are currently selling the G66 plus, a credit card sized receiver with 
assisted gps.  This receiver is not only a traditional 66 channel gps receiver, 
but it also has AGPS to help in areas where gps coverage is poor.  AGPS uses 
ground stations and a regularly updated internal database to help you gain a 
near accurate position even if gps coverage is poor or not available.  You can 
find out more on the talknav website.  The cost is £49.95 plus £6.99 postage 
and handling.

    All.

    Anyone had any experiences and thus can make any recommendations concerning 
a good quality and currrently available bluetooth GPS receiver to work with 
WayFinder Access and a Nokia E51.
