Same on both progs (yes everything up to date inc maps)
I use a Wayfinder bt GPS which someone gave me. It works great - even upstairs in the house it locks on in seconds. I think it's quite old as the compatible phones listed only stretch as far as a Nokia N70.

I found an application that pics your gps location up and tells you places of interest near you too. quite interesting, but I can't remember what it's called.

Maemo mapper though works superbly for me on my N800 running 0s2008. No problem pairing, or even with a simutaneous BT DUN connection to my N95
