Does anybody know of any GPS software (apart from the usual SatNav suspects) that will give current coordinates, ie latitude, longitude, altitude etc?

Cheers

Thanks but I am familiar with the usual retail sat nav software, I was looking for less commercial s/w.

Nav4all is another free option.

One thing to note, between Amaze and Nav4all, they need to download the maps when you use the GPS navi. func. while you're on the road....so, make sure you have a good data plan of some sort.

Does commercial mean free, or something else..? Smart2Go is free and you can turn off the network access. As discussed in another thread, run it once (Wifi for free), then download whatever maps you like using your PC.
Although I personally can't stand it. Hubby borrowed my phone :frown: this afternoon to help him locate a street in Northampton, and the street searching was appalling after what I'm used to on TomTom...

Commercial means expensive, but if you spend some time searching, you can get it for "free".
