N70 and problems with GPS receiver

2 replies · 2,297 views · Started 17 October 2006

Hi.
I would like to buy a Nokia N70 mainly for GPS navigation. The problem is that I found a lot of bad comments about the compatibility among N70 and any bluyetooth GPS receiver.
Since the N70 was presented on the market on the second half of 2005, I would expect that those problems have been resolved but, it appears to me, that Nokia has not resolved the various problems.
Any updated comments or news about this?
thankx

I knew one good combination of GPS on an N70 from a friend. N70 + LD-1W with Tomtom or Route66. Both work well, without any problem, even with first firware, but now, with last one.

i just purcahsed a n70 it has teh latest frimware 5.XXXX what evere it is
i have purchaed a 2G memory stick and a cheap GPS reciver from ebay ive had no problems at all once tomtom froze but hey if only my pc was taht reliable.

here are links to the ebay items i have no connection to thease sellers at all.
