[gps-talkusers] Re: Will Mobile Geo be available for Symbian?

Not sure, since I haven't seen many braille displays. I just use the speech on the phone.

But it's still less bulky and more portible than lugging around a
BrailleNote, is it not?

When you use a braille display, the gps system definitely becomes less

Thanks. Why is it not recommended to use an external braille display 
with a cell phone?  I wouldn't mind having a braille display, but
don't really want to have to carry around the BrailleNote with me.

How is Windows Mobile?  I hear it is much more business oriented,
slower, and less intuitive than Simbian.  Thoughts?  I guess this is
really a question of whether the benefits of Mobile Geo outway the
downsides of switching to a Windows Mobile phone.

Eric,

I think Kim is talking about a different application which isn't
actually GPS. With cell towers far apart in the U.S., it isn't very
useful.

Wayfinder Access may not be as good as Geo but it is certainly a
descent program and cover the basics fine. If you like your N95 and
are going to stick with it, Wayfinder Access is worth considering.

You can find details on this and all the accessible GPS programs at

Eric: - If you have a knfb reader cell phone and still want a GPS
application for the cell phone, you can install the GPS Access
application
on the cell phone.  No, its probably not as user friendly or
accurate as
Sendero's GPS product since the GPS Access program relys on
bouncing its
signal from one cell tower antenna to the next, but it'll give
you a
good
sense of your surrounding location, and will display a list of
POIS.

Eric,

No plans for Sendero GPS on Symbian at this time. It is a huge
undertaking.
We can hope that the KNFB Reader will find a home on a Windows
Smartphone one of these days.
