A friend of mine gave me his old bluetooth GPS device today; he doesnt need it any longer.

First thing I tried on my 770 was Maemo Mapper, of course. Worked great - as far as I can tell, because I was to lazy to get out of my apartment and move around - At least it located me correctly.

So, what else is there to do with a bluetooth GPS device and a 770 running OS2006?

The GPS-thing seems to be rather dumb (doesnt have a display, doesnt track anything), so the first thing that comes to my mind here is to use the 770 simply to display and/or record the data from the GPS. Maemo Mapper doesnt seem to be the right application for this, there must be something simpler, maybe a simple shell script or something? Oh yes, and: will the 770 keep its connection to the GPS with the hard cover closed, does anybody know?

Speaking of shell scripts, how do I interact with such a device from the command line? I'm clueless.

Ideas on what else to do are very welcome. I feel I got a wonderful new toy here but dont know what to do with it.
