Sony Ericsson K800i GPS Software-Can it be done?

[nunney]

Hi, I've got a K800i & I'd like to turn it into a Sat Nav. From reading the forum it looks like I need a Bluetooth GPS Receiver & GPS Software. I've looked about & found a couple that require subscription (Navteq & wayfinder) Does any one know of software that doesn't require subscription? Will it work? I've looked at various online shops that sell Bluetooth GPS systems apparently compatible with the K800i but when I try to find the software it doesn't list the phone!! Any help greatly appreciated. Regards Nunney.

Just to echo the above comment - my Bluetooth GPS unit arrived today, so I tried out amAze and Nav4All in the car with my K800i on the way to Asda... Nav4All was, by far, the better of the two.

I think you'd be safe in using almost any recent Bluetooth GPS unit with the K800i.

HTH,
