Well, way finder does not use cell towers, are you using the same gps receiver with way finder that you use with your sendero GPS?

Hi: - I have both Way Finder and the Sendero GPS and I will have to slightly disagree with you here regarding the two products working the same. I get a much accurate reading with my Sendero GPS than I do with the Way Finder application. I guess it depends on the area that you use it in and how many cell towers it has to bounce off of. I often find that, at least in my area, the way finder tries to look over to far and reports intersecting roads that are not related with the one you are on. For example: we have two main thoroughways that run parrellell to each other but are separate by 
several blocks distance.  Often I find that the Way Finder will keep
reporting intersecting streeets that correspond with the other paraellell road instead of the actual road I happen to be on, you wouldn't know that this oddity was occuring if you didn't know and were unfamiliar with the area. However, when using my Sendero GPS on the same route I don't run across this problem and find that it accurately reports the intersecting 
streets.

Actually, the product you are probably thinking of is way finder
access, and it does use GPS and map data just like Sendero GPS does.
For the most part, it does everything the Sendero GPS does.

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.
