Another Rookie Online - Can you help

Hi there, I am looking for a GSP solution. Here is some current "context".
- I am in Canada
- I have a Sony Ericcson P900 that I would like to use at some point (when application software becomes available)
- I have a Compaq TC1000 tablet PC
- I think I want to go with Bluetooth [so that when I can find s/w for my phone I can use the same receiver]
- I am a realtor - looking for ease of use, good graphics, will be using in my car mostly
- priority is Cdn content [maps]
- would like to get other maps if travelling for holidays etc.

Any recommendations on Receiver and on Software ????

thanks in advance, for any help / recommendations you can offer !

You won't have much luck with the P900, but for the Tablet you can use either Deluo Routis (or another Intellinav clone) or ALK CoPilot. They both have decent maps of Canada.

Thanks for the tip.

I have now started looking for Deluo Routis.

Found lots of reviews etc, but have not found any source to BUY it from.

Can you point me ???

thx -

It used to be available at www.deluoelectronics.com but now it looks they took it off their list.

Alternatives are http://www.socketcom.com/product/GP0822-523.asp
or http://www.prymenav.com/products/PrymeNav_home.asp

(same engine)

Seeing as you have also indicated that a solution for the P900 is not likely (what a shame !).

How about a USB solution instead of bluetooth.

Is there a particular solution you would recommend for the tablet?

Again, wanting to use it primarily in Canada?

Or would you suggest the same solution?

yes, still the same. CoPilot Desktop will give you some more route planning options, PrymeNav will be "lighter" to use
