Garmin Mobile XT
 

Has anyone got any experience with Garmin Mobile XT ?

I understand it can be run with mobile phones - so you have bluetooth and GPS with say - Scala Q2 possibilities - has anyone got this running successfully ?

If so I'd like to know more.
Thanks

No problem on mobile with Symbian or PDA with Windows Mobile.

I use Garmin Mobile XT on my mobile phone and it does the job i usually put my phone into the top of my tank bag with the headphones in but i've now got one of these PELI 1010 MICRO CASE WITH FOAM SET COLOUR CLEAR BLACK on eBay (end time 30-Jul-09 08:37:59 BST) , abit of metal and 21mm plastic cable clamps to mount it to the handle bars of my dl650 v-strom

I've got it running on a Nokia 6220c and unlike the TomTom equivalent, it will work with internal GPS.

The battery life isn't great with GPS switched on so I would imagine it would be even less if also running bluetooth. I just use the headset that came with the phone.

BTW, I prefer TomTom Navigator which I've used on a N73 but with bluetooth GPS. Either the Garmin or TomTom is better than Nokia Maps and both can be found on the internet to evaluate before buying.
