Currently, Google maps is guessing your approximate location based on which mobile phone towers you are currently relying on.<br /><br />When you get a dongle, this will be more exact, showing your location within a 5m radius or so.MyE63noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1441370819335946149.post-7960100332282860472009-09-02T03:15:19.365-07:002009-09-02T03:15:19.365-07:00Hi MyE63,

If I decide to get the dongle, will that make Google Maps more accurate, or do I have to use it with Nokia Maps only?<br />Sorry about the noob questions.<br />Cheers,<br />LuauLuaunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1441370819335946149.post-74846194223127817922009-08-24T22:11:48.629-07:002009-08-24T22:11:48.629-07:00Peter - the E63 works really well with a GPS.

Its especially handy when you are using it in a place without mobile phone reception like when we went fishing in the Northern Territory, in a billabong 30minutes from Darwin. <br /><br />Nokia map has voice directions but requires $$ for a subscription. Amaze GPS program is free for voice nav and good for driving. Nokia maps does have satellite, terrain and map modes as well as 3D view. <br /><br />I have the Freedom 2000 GPS keychain for $90MyE63noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1441370819335946149.post-30795163088124651132009-08-24T15:31:18.064-07:002009-08-24T15:31:18.064-07:00Some questions:

I've currently used Google Maps (without GPS) and it's OK for walking around but it doesn't give you a rotating map view of where you are going. I am guessing Nokia Maps will work for this, but I don't know as it doesn't really work without the GPS dongle.<br /><br />2. Does Nokia Maps give voice directions? I think it does a 3D map right?<br /><br />3. Do you use the E63 for driving? <br /><br />4. How much are you selling the GPS dongle?Peter Kapitolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13196990733019055183noreply@blogger.com
