GPS software and hardware

Any recommendations as to which GPS receiver and software will work best on a 9300?

I'm UK based so it will be mainly used in the UK and Eire.

Tomtom Mobile works fine on the 9500 with Nokias own bluetooth GPS module.

I especially like the way it integrates with the contacts application - you can select any of your contacts and the program will calculate you a route to that person or place. It is convenient when 3'rd party software can interoperate with the standard applications like that, so you dont have to re-enter data thats in the device already.

And Nokia module use the same charger as the phone and also Nokia Batterys.

I am using the Navicore 2006/1 system. If you buy the full kit Navicore actually supply the BT338 receiver so you know that it matches well but you can buy the software alone. Worked extremely well straight from the box.
