shift navigation tools

---

ok

thanks to the last releases of taïhugo, we are able to use the built in gps of our shift,

now let us see what solution we have to use as a nor;al gps navigator...
because we dont have sd acess from snapvue, we need to use on the fly mapping software.

telnav is ok but not free..
googlemaps zorks great but its not a real time navigation apps

finally i have tried 3 freewares.

amaze gps ,,,, working but its an alpha versionm for now..
nav4all dont work with my wap connection

and.....

mappymobi very very good similar to tomtom .. 3d interface great and clear voice poi qnd free

garmin mobile xt is payware, but europe maps are small, so I can put one on only 6 meg for example

could you tell me the way you succeeded to use garmin on shift? I saw from garmin's web site that it only works from SD...
Of course apart from donkeys and mules... ;)

Download from garmin site, install to a SD card or usb drive. Get the garmin folder, copy it to the root of WInmo side. Run queppc in apps/wm folder. You will have to buy a key though.

Thanks Thaiugo... and not only for this info, but for your great work too!

PC Navigation Software

There's

www.sygic.com - 3D PC Navigation Software with Voice

www.microsoft.com/autoroute - 3D PC Navigation with Voice (however, I still am unable to run/install it properly on vista...

PC Navigator 8 - from www.mapfactor.com

Still bad beat with Autoroute... anyone ?

n't want to sound that much garmin fanboy, but garmin pc can work with internal gps too.
To setup, you must use franson gps on wm side and on vista side, using activesync connection passtrough, and a com0com free driver on vista side to give access to garmin. When using this drivers, you must rename the default com post to COM7 and COM8 for example, to see them in franson gpsgate.

I have mapfactor pc navigator and autoroute 2007 already installed on vista side of my shift, but I'm unable to share GPS from snapvue to vista...
mapfactor won't setup com port... and autoroute the same...
