Holy shit.. sWEET! Thanks for this.. this thing looks so sharp on my W800's display. I love it . I have yet to test it with a GPS receiver though. I actually have one.. from my Pocket PC + TomTom days.. I'll have to dig it up and try.

Thanks!

This looks good, but you require a GPRS connection to the internet. In my case my operator charges 0,50€ per 100k and per connection. The application closes it's internet connection after every download/upload. For calculating a road discription, you need a connection for your starting point, one for your endpoint, one for the calculation and if you want a connection to download the map. That't a total of 2€. (Total of only 15-20k)
Is there a way to keep the connection to the internet open on W800i. That way it would only cost me 0.5€ and a extra 0,5€ per 100k extra...

Way to keep connection open?

Use the latest opera mini w/ file browser.
Go to the external menu.
Under the Network settings, Tick the first option ....Shadow mode or something.....

That works when you're in Opera. I wan't my connection kept alive while Nav4all is running. I don't pay for the time I use GPRS but per session! All Belgian Proximus customers must have the same prob!

one option is to conect your w800/k750 to your home internet conection via bluetooth, then download the maps for free

another option would be those guys allow file acess from the app, so that the maps could be stored on the memory stick and acessed from there

i think apps like this will rock on k800 bigger screen...i might buy a gps receiver then

Yeah, I bought their bluetooth gps receiver last friday and got it yesterday, it works like a treat! It's also the cheapest you can find ANYWHERE, even on eBay they sell it over 100 EUR...

It works great. I tried it with a GPS receiver of a friend. But it to expensive to use because of the GPRS use. Th applications connects and closes the connection several times to calculate the routes. Still searching for a way to keep the GPRS connection alive on W800i.
