My wife and I are going to try geocaching with the c:geo app. This has been something she has wanted to do for several years, but I had been too cheap to buy a real GPS unit.

I just discovered that my TomTom has the ability to do that, I just found an option got entering coordinates, never even knew it was there!

my omnia had GPS and I had some good software for it, but the battery life was horrible. I want to see how the Eris does recording tracks, etc when I go for a hike or run.

HAH! even though the phone has a funny shaped USB connection, you can still use a mini-b cable.

I found that out too on the USB. It totally chews up the power though when using GPS and tracking.

I have found it is possible to sync with outlook, without having to use google at all. though now that I have migrated everything over, I may stick with google for now, at least till the next time I have to set up the phone again, like when I put 2.1 on it.

I use Sprints wireless modem for my laptop and I'm sort of satisfied. You've got to deal with the slow periods which are doing work hours (which is when I need it most) and at night or early morning is when it is fastest. I'm waiting for 4g coverage in my area.

If anyone wants to add me on lattitude, PM me. Need some people to play with these features

Side note, I can't post using opera mini

Opera mini beta 5 seems to be a little better.

Sending PM just for the heck of it.

that is what I have installed, and on my site at least, I was unable to post, it went through the motions, but when I hit submit, the page would refresh, and the post would never be there, I use the default browser, it works fine.

has anyone got flycast to work on a google phone?
