Blue tooth and GPS

5 replies · 3,524 views · Started 28 July 2005

Is it possible to pick up two blue-tooth signals at the same time on one phone. I'm thinking of using blue-tooth GPS in my car but I'm a little worried that the blue-tooth in car hands free kit may interfere. any advice would be much appreciated.

I'm referring to a Nokia 6260

Cheers

just tried that myself last night, 6260, fortuna slim, tomtom mobile 5, jabra bt200

i found the ttm5 and fortuna had to be working first then then turn on the jabra, must point out though, the audio quality drops on the headset.

I can use a bluetooth earpiece and connect to my PC at the same time, so I think it should work. Omidaijo

pc's and mobile phones are very different, pc,s are designed to have multipul bt conections where as most mobile phones eg nokia 6600 will only allow one bt conection at a time

yes, you can do it but probably you must first establish your phone - gps bt connection and after that you phone -hansdsfree bt connection .

both on my car kit and my earpiece (both nokias) you need to do that, otherwise yopu get a "maximum connections already established" error

btw, heard that thee "rikaline"gps receiver is not compatible currently with one of the nokia car kits
