there is a serious problem with these kits you ought to be aware of.
i installed route 66 mobile 7 symbian (nokia) this week and found to my horror:
1. there is no way on theior symbian versions of getting speed trap data into it.
2. on my nokia 7610, i cant use the bluetooth headset i have at the same time as the GPS bluetooth transceiver unit.

its also got a cumbersome cradle you wouldnt want in a tidy car, and would attract theives unlike a compact unit you can sucker off into your pocket.

Nice idea, but definitely not a satnav for speeders or businessmen unless you got a multi-bloototh channeling phone.

cheaper to buy a garmin i say
another issue, is by putting their tiny 256mb MMC card into your phone, you just lost all your pics and vids etc, so its not so simple, i bought a 2GB MMC and copied old and their data onto it, which worked but took a fiddly while on the PC.

gprs updates of mobile 7 were cool though.
also i asked it to navigate me to somewhere it had as a poi in Cork Ireland and it said it didnt have enough memory for the route (2GB!!!)

possibly ideal for really slow vehicles who want to travel light, e.g. bicycles/pedestriansbut without 12V youre only going to get max 7 hours.

This has got to be THE most impressive thing a mobile phone can do, but it's just got to have the speed trap database capability like their windows mobile version does or its a joke
