Hello,

Has anyone been successful in pairing their cell phones with the n800 to use it as a GPS Receiver?

Is it even possible?

Thanks,
Sammm

For WM - probably only using Gpsgate or similar software.

But that only works for the Nokia NX series of phones, I thought.

There aren't any maemo apps that use j2me to retrieve gps locations?

Gpsgate can act as a bluetooth GPS. Or at least that's the plan. Not sure if it is working.

My Motorola i875 happily pairs with my N800 as a Bluetooth GPS receiver--no extra software necessary. Sadly, the i875 can almost never find any satellites, so it's quite useless.
