IGO My Way 8 Stirs Up Navigation Market Nav N Go and partners present devices running true 3D navigation software at CeBIT 2008 CeBIT Hanover, Ma– Nav N Go, one of the leading GPS navigation solution providers, announces the availability of its 3D navigational software, iGO My Way 8, on a variety of personal navigation devices (PNDs), smart phones and game consoles. I've tried the Garmin version for Windows Mobile on a PDA before and had problems during installation. I just want to see if it would work on a different version of Symbian S60, and if it could be modified to support a non-Garmin receiver. It didn't cost me any, as I already have the N70, a 1GB MMC card (only 103MB was used) and a Bluetooth GPS receiver. The N70 with the freewebs detailed map of the Philippines. I did the same trick on the N70 and viola!. I found a trick (for another phone) to make Garmin look for the phone's built-in GPS receiver. When it can't find one, it "ejects" the memory card and the application closes down. Indeed, after installation, the software searches only for a Garmin Bluetooth GPS receiver. The "Ready To Navigate" message means that Garmin Mobile XT can talk to my non-Garmin GPS receiver. An old Nokia with the free-downloadable Garmin Mobile XT. That the free download of Garmin Mobile XT supports only Garmin Bluetooth GPS receivers.
