Would it be possible to connect a GPS chipset to the 750i? Drawing power from the k750 battery, and reading nmea0183 data over the rs232 protocoll?

That way, a miniature "lump" could be attached to the phone without battery, BT radio (size and power), and giving simple GPS functionality at low price..

You think?

a gps receiver with its own power doesnt cost a lot of money and the practicality of yet another implementation makes your idea another one to bite the dust....

A GPS BT receiver is quite a hand-full. While a GPS chipset is smaller than a sugarcube...

well it is a great idea but a better idea it to have it integrated onto the phone itself...

Get that and youll have a small fortune...

But I know what you mean... I hope you find a way...
