Hello everyone:

are a few people on that list that have been using it in Europe and say =
it
works well.  The rumour on the list is that the US version will be =
released
very soon or has already been released.  People are  saying that talks =
works
well at giving directions but some of the features of way finder are =
still
graphical.  I am looking forward to trying it and will get back to this =
list
with my results.

GPS on a mobile phone is certainly relevant on this list. I have seen =

Wayfinder used at the Sight Village conference last July. Basic GPS=20
functions appeared to be covered. I didn't use the phone while walking=20
around. It was just a virtual demo.

Wayfinder is a service available in the UK and Europe for a subscription =

fee and the price of the GPS receiver. The vendor who showed it to me =

to cover the basics nicely.
