Anyone know of a simple GPS point locator?

[DeLorean]

I love snowboarding, and always carry a mobile phone & GPS with me just in case.

I'd like to have the ability to navigate back to a stored GPS location if I ever get in trouble (whiteout etc.).

I currently have a Trumpion TR-G1 which currently runs TomTom Navigator 6 from an SD card.

Although this does the trick (crudely), it tries to lock you to roads which is a pain (especially in the mountains).

Does anyone know of a piece of software (preferably freeware) which would do the job and will run on a WinCE v5.0 based PND.

Something simple which shows the direction you should walk and the distance left to your destination (stored GPS location)?

Thanks

I came past this software for the Pocket PC which basically does what I want:

I also found this WinCE version of the software:

It does run on my device, but not properly

Thanks for the info SpeedTracker

I gave it a go and initially everything looked promising

But unfortunately it doesn't run well on a QVGA screen

By using the MoveWindows utility and on screen keyboard I was able to get it going, but it was pretty much unuseable

Sorry about that Delorean. And thank you anyway for trying
I am using an HTC s620 with a 320x240 QVGA screen which is similar to your handheld type of screen.
So i thought it could run ... but if your are interrested and give me more details about the issue i could carry out a specific software for your TR-G1
