Default nav4all ???

Hi,

I need a GPS system, but I want one which works at a mobile phone. I found one called Nav4All. Do you know if it works at the States?

Thank you!

(I moved your post over here to the Just Chattin' forum since you're not selling or looking to buy anything from others on the site. )

I don't see why it wouldn't work. There's no regional issues with GPS as far as I know. All it does it read from satellites that orbit the earth. It's the same satellites regardless of where you are in the world.

Opps! ops: Well if that's the case, you better be very careful. I know there have been lots of GPS map discusisons around here. You might want to do a search and see what the outcome was. (Sorry, I didn't pay too much attention as I'm not much of a GPS navigation guy. )

Interesting concept. If you haven't found it, it's at http://www.nav4all.com/site2/www.nav.../eng/index.php (english..they support many languages)

Does look like it would have US applicability, but it doesn't seem to support any Smartphones. It appears you load an application and all the maps, screens are loaded over the air. You can use a GPS to do what those typically do. Right now it is free, but they are very upfront about trying to get you hooked, so when they do start charging

Does it matter? These guys are nothing but spammers. They've posted too many fake messages and made my life a pain. I won't recommend their product to anyone, doesn't matter how good it is.
