Company issued me a Mobile 5 SmartPhone -- XV6700. This baby does Email, Mp3s, Pics, Vids, etc... Then I heard that there are GPS recievers Avail that this thing can talk to via BlueTooth. I was thinking MP3, Web Access, and GPS in one mount.

Has anyone tried this?

My fear may be accuracy of the GPS reciever and or Software on PDA.

Not positive, butt you might get more of a response if this were posted in the Gadgets and Gear forum. There are several sub-forums there, that include GPS, MP3s, etc., etc.

I don't know much abou this phone, but I wouldn't worry about the accuracy of the GPS, I am sure it is close enough. GPS can be anywhere from 100 feet to 3 feet accurate at any given time.

GPS can be anywhere from 100 feet to 3 feet accurate at any given time.My Garmin 2610 is always within < 30 feet accurate. And with the external antenna mounted on our Buick, it's always < 10 feet accurate.
