Thankfully, the F20 has an extensive POI database. When you select the POI icon from the main menu, you have the option of the nearest POI or all POIs. If you select All POIs, you can enter in a City name or a ZIP code. Whether you choose the nearest POI or enter a location, you are next presented with a list of 66 POI categories or "all POIs." If you choose, say, Restaurants, all of the restaurants will be displayed in ascending distance either from your current location or the specified location. You can either view a list or type in a name. When you use the F20's alphabetically arranged software keyboard, matches appear on the top line of the screen as you type. Unfortunately, you can't search for POIs near a specific address.

The Acer is primarily a conventional relatively low spec Pocket PC PDA with built in GPS receiver and Destinator Maps (UK and Ireland maps provided in the price here in the UK). To turn it into a logging device while using the Navigation software I needed to duplicate the GPS COM port which is being achieved without problems to date using GPSGate from Franson in Sweden (US$29.95 for the Standard version, US$9.95 for the Express version). This software provides virtual COM ports for the GPS receiver so that more than one software package can access the GPS receiver at the same time.
The Destinator (v. 3 and up) software is able to log by itself. You get a binary format which is described by Jonas Svensson, that page also includes a plain converter. Currently you lose information about number of satellites and how good the position is, but may be an alternative if you do not wish to use extra software.
After unlocking the Windows desktop you can use custom programs for data logging: One of the free programs is POI Observer which is actually designed to display warnings when getting near a POI but also has data logging capabilities. The forum (in german) has the program, scripts and a walk through to unlock the Windows desktop and use POI Observer in parallel to the Falk Navigator software.
A update to the Neo1973 which has the mass market as target. Not like the 1973 is has only a few hardware bugs. See GPS_Problems (now solved). While the hardware is solid, the software still has beta status.
The GTop66 plus is an ultra-slim Bluetooth GPS receiver. It has Bluetooth and USB connectivity. It uses the MTK ??? chipset, supporting 66 channels and AGPS. The default update rate is 300 ms, but this can be adjusted downward with suitable software. The AGPS loader software supplied crashes on my PC, so I have not been able to try AGPS yet. Thet battery is integrated into the unit, charged via the mini-USB socket. Battery life is at least several hours of continual operation. In use the unit performs very well, giving a nice stable trace at walking speed.
Since it talks NMEA, it works with most software, but you do have to do most of the processing on something else. There are a number of very nice programs for Series 60 phones (e.g., GETrack to log to GPX, nmea_info.py to log and show location, satellites etc), and also any normal PC software that does NMEA works fine too.
The Holox BT541 uses the Skytraq Venus 521 chipset which supports AGPS. Skytraq provide a free AGPS download application for Symbian and Windows. Time to lock, and typical accuracy are very good when AGPS is used (can be a bit tempramental without it). Early firmware versions had problems with track drift (firmware is upgradeable, but difficult to find the latest version).
The Mobile Mapper CE is particulaly designed for GIS professionals so you can find mobile GIS software which run on it like : Arcpad or Edipocket. Softwares takes benefit of the windows CE .NET environnement, the full-color display with touch panel and the integrated alphanumeric keyboard.
I have never use any Garmin GPS so I don't have any point of comparaison for urban mapping. But, one of the purpose of the MMCe is its quality of detecting SNR signal (Signal sur bruit in french) and the ability of fixing it. It is specially dedicated of using in urban environnement (to avoide urban canyoning effect) and under the forest canopy. The MMCE is more dedicated for static mapping than for kinetic mapping. It is not configured to estimate a point with the coordinates of last one evaluated with speed and azimuth.The main difference between the MMCE and MMPro belong to the software. The MMCE comes with WindowsMobile CE (v. 5?) but without any mapping software. The MM Pro come with Thales mapping software.

Mio P550 is a PDA that runs Windows Mobile 5. It has a built-in GPS module with the SiRFstar III chipset. Its possible to attach an external antenna. The device also features Bluetooth and WLAN. Car mount is included in the package. The device can be bought with or without included maps and navigation software from MIO. A few of the devices sold before August 2006 had a problem with weak signal level, but the problem has now been acknowledged by Mio. Questions about the device can be asked to user:eriso
The main problem with battery life appears to be caused by the Windows ActiveSync software continually trying to make PC contact. To fix this, follow this link: _ID=56706&whichpage=10 This details a procedure which adds a dummy connection, then sets ActiveSync to manual. As a result, battery life is extended considerably. The Mio software also seems to be a bit of a battery hog. If you just want to log your track, look at Beeline GPS software - its inexpensive and includes a lot of useful geo-caching functions for quick annotation.
A standard car navigation unit driven by SIRFstarIII and WinCE with simple media support and Bluetooth.As delivered the iGo software is completely useless for mapping, since it is not possible to get the GPX files out of the device. However, if you don't mind voiding the warranty, go to _ID=61233&whichpage=1 and learn how to hack it to add that feature (it is quite easy).
Good experience: small, lightweight, concentrates on basic features, cheep in Germany (70.0 Eur), Possibility to set PDOP, TDOP, Sat Nr masks,... for user that knows the GPS parameters quite wellBad experience: insufficient manual with mistakes, not enough informations for beginners in GPS, files can't be copied or downloaded from stick and need transformation by included software. --Snail044 15:24, 29 June 2008 (UTC) Software update crashed. Could be saved by manually downloading the *.img file on the stick and cycle power :-) HB9DTX 28 August 2009
The software is able to store the NMEA logs parallel to normal card view, but also in navigation mode. It is the real GPS position stored and not the displayed one!! The software tries to position the arrow always on the nearest street.
When this option is enabled, the device will save .log files in the My Documents directory. These files grow until they are 2 MiB, in which case a new file is created and used. When the device is full, it appears to start removing older files. The files can be downloaded to your computer using Actice Sync or SynCE using Linux.The .log files use the NMEA file format which can be translated to GPX by gpsbabel.
The Nokia N95, N79, N810, E71, E90, 5330 XpressMusic, 5800 XpressMusic, 6220 Classic & 6110 (among others) have built-in GPS unit. It's useful have an up-to-date version of the Nokia software that uses AGPS to substantially speed up start up times (without the update, every time the GPS gets activated, it needed to perform a 'cold start' and download full almanac data from the satellites, which took several minutes).
Download Sportstracker, a free GPS tracking program from Nokia research labs. It allows to record a trip and export it to GPX directly. The software page says it is compatible with the following phones: N71, N73, N75, N76, N79, N80, N80ie, N91, N92, N93, N93i, N95, E50, E60, E61, E61i, E62, E65, E70, E90, 3250, 5500 Sport, 6290, 6110 Navigator, 6210 Navigator, 6220 Classic.
You can download TTGPSLogger, a GPS logger software for Symbian S60 3rd Edition(FP1, FP2) and 5th Edition. The GPS tracking log can be written in NMEA, GPX, or KML format by using Built-in GPS or Bluetooth GPS.
The use of the GPS is highly dependent on which software is used. At the moment, OSM mappers will want to install Maemo mapper. This records and displays tracks over a map background which is OSM's Mapnik by default. Unless started in the same place as it was previously stopped, the GPS/Mapper takes quite a long to to get a fix, but once it has it is nicely dense and apparently pretty reliable (though is just as vulnerable to woodland and tall buildings as other GPSs). 2ff7e9595c
