So I see we now have a GPS forum here - 'bout time! ;)
I've got a bluetooth GPS receiver that I use with my Nokia 6630 and, when it works, it's great. I've got TomTom Mobile 5 on it as well as TomTom Citymaps (I've used NY, Lisbon and London) and Wcities NYC.
I've got so used to city maps of "new" cities that I would feel lost (excuse the pun!) without them loaded and my BT fired up! Not to say that there aren't problems - trying to get a lock in Manhattan isn't easy, especially if you've just come out of a building or from underground. But when it works it's amazing and in a bustling metropolis you blend in more because you're looking at your phone (like all the locals seem to do!) and not at a bloody awkward paper map!
So, who else has "personal" GPS here (not the incar kind)?
