If your significant other did that, you might get crabby. But when it's your GPS device, no worries. Set your course, push some buttons, and your GPS can get you where you need to go. That's not all. Once you have GPS set up on your Windows Mobile-based device, you'll find that simply following directions to your destination is just the beginning. You can use it to find your way to restaurants, libraries, parks, and more. You can even search for buried treasure by joining a geocaching hunt."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/wey-20050620-WMGPS.jpg" /><br /><br />Microsoft has published a decently-sized article on GPS with Windows Mobile. It's a great read if you're new to the concept as the article provides an introduction to GPS, covers a few available options (software and hardware), and suggests a few uses for GPS too.
