I'm rather new to Google Maps, but with my Kaiser having built in GPS it seems like a useful little app.
My question would be, can you download maps in advance rather than using your expensive GPRS?
HTC Touch doesn't have internal GPS so I have to rely on Google Maps' "My Location" feature to find where I am. The problem is, Google Maps doesn't work offline and GPRS connection costs a lot where I live.
So, is there an offline program like iGo or TomTom that can find where I am without a GPS chip? If google can do it, so can others...
Maybe this could be your solution!

You may want to buy BT linked gps receiver and BT link to
your Touch.
Very very very nice link. Thanks man!! Didn't know about that program....
what gps aplication to use on windows mobile ?
garmin , tom tom ....other than that?
i like Garmin, good maps for canada. finger friendly for driving- not that u should do that lol
Google Maps. Depends what you use the GPS for i spose.
GPS Softwares: Destinator, Route 66, Co-Pilot Live, Mapking, iGuidance, Nav N Go igo.
Off Road GPS Software - OziExplorer, Vito Navigator, GPS Tuner, Tracky Pro
Really depends on what you want to use GPS for and your location on earth

Yes, you need data connection for Google Maps.
I personally use iGO8, and I have no complaints so far. Their maps are recently updated, more so probably for European Maps.
i used google and tomtom and i can say forget them
iGO8 is the best i used
if your device can't run iGO8 at full speed turn off landscape and buildings
and it will become very fast
beside that iGO8 gets gps signal very fast 2-3 times faster than iGO6 or tomtom 6
Hello..
Is there some free GPS app for this phone?
I need GPS with Europe maps.. And off course, real GPS app, with maps, not Google maps, etc..

Hello, i wonder if there is any maps app that uses the Google Maps API but isn't Google Maps (as it's heavy and not battery friendly).
I use and like Here to drive, but it lack places to research as Google Maps is perfect on that.
