Nokia 770 and Navigation?
Does any one know if it is posible to get a navigation software for the 770?

Koen Kooi is porting something called GPS Drive. There have been no updates though. Check it out here:

Great, will try to take contact to him, and maybe push him to post some more.

I'd love to see a GPS Drive release - I am currently automating the slicing up some UK maps into 1280x1024 and creation of the config files.
I also read that the TomTom Go devices are ARM based and run Linux, so if it becomes worthwhile I expect they will release a 770 compatible version. Gareth |
It just keeps getting better and better! I'l have to try it soon! If I have any problems getting it to work, I will ask!
I am not used to using Linux. If any one has more information, please post. How about the GPS module, what du you use? Does the Nokia GPS work, does someone know? /$vend |

The brand-name receivers appear to be very expensive for no particular reason, I am planning to get one from the Hong Kong sellers on ebay - the "Rikaline" model looks good, very good acquisition times. Gareth |
Okay, I'll try with the Nokia GPS and the GPS Drive. I'll for sure also ask stupid questions. ;)

I haven't got my 770 yet. :(
So I haven't tried it yet. Did any one else try in the mean time? /$vend |
Any hope of this working with a wired GPS? Mine has serial only, but a serial->USB adapter then connecting it to the 770 would be worthwhile if it'd work.

I haven't got a BT GPS receiver yet, I will order one tomorrow because I am nearly finished figuring out how to automagically extract my maps into a series of tiles that GPS Drive can use. Gareth |
