Wow a long thread...
I havn't read it all so hopefully there's one out there who can help me
Is there any hope that route 66 (or any other GPS program) will work normally and problem-free on my P900 or will I have to change to a P910i to be able to get navigation...?¿?
you can get route 66 for p900
http://www.66.com/route66/pro[....]id=UK&sec=0&ssec=2&prodid=1639
in a kit form with gps reciver etc ....or you can just get the software disk

Looks like Navicore do sell maps of other countries. Check here:

Ugh! GBP 100,- for a map!
Even with the 256 mb MS, it's still bl**dy expensive. AND you have to buy the GBP 200,- UK version anyway. Compare that to Route66 Europe: GBP 250,- with ALL the maps!
These kinds of prices are the breeding ground for crackers...

i would guess even if the maps were £10 someone would spend the time cracking them. i can understand the 'expensive' price, it is giving them a chance at making some money off of the ' got to have it now ' brigade in the first months before every one can download them for zilch from the web.

I've lurked here for too long...
Okies, I've downloaded a trial of nhGPS (25Euro if I keep it) but there's no maps - you can add your own maps (and their site links to a tutorial on how to do this) but I can't find any maps that are big enough.
Has anyone else used the software?

I'd be interested in other software only packages as I already have a receiver...

If you want real sat nav with voice directions, maps and all that your choices are Route 66 and Wayfinder. Tomtom is due out soon enough but no idea when.
Yes, these both cost quite a bit, lots more than any other thing out there but you are getting a professional app.

E99 for wayfinder and E149 for Route66
wayfinder is E99 a year?? and it wants to use my GPRS connection (which will cost me more money!)?
Is there a good reason to choose wayfinder instead of route66 or is this a no-brainer?

I got Route 66 last week for my P910i, best app I have ever got.
If you need sat nav, get route 66

I noticed today that Navicore have uploaded a tool on their website which allows creation of POIs.
I grabbed the standard pocketgps database of speed/safety cameras and easily converted and uploaded it to my p910i.
Great stuff. I now have cams as POIs, and they optionally/additionally trigger proximity alerts if I'm exceeding the speed limit near the cameras
