[Nokia 6110 Navigator]

Hi, I'm german, so forgive me, taking a strange way of speaking english!

 

I've owned the Nokia 6110 Navigator and must say, thats an usefull tool to navigate to and search for caches. It's because you get a all-in-one solution for caching. Navigate by car or bicycle to the cache using street- or byfoot-navigation, search for the cache using a simple positioning-program, look for the Geocaching.com site by internet, take a look at the PDF-Dokument and take a foto of the cache .

 

Seems to be a SwissArmyKnife but there are some difficulties using it: You have to input the coordinates by your self in XX.xxxx°-format, no possibility using a datatransfer. The navigation says: "You reached your goal" if you are nearer than 10 meter.

 

So if anyone have found a usefull third-party-software using "Serie 60 Symbian 9.2", which will be better - please tell me.

 

Interesseted in your opinion.

 

In MyWay Navigator Lite you can use integrated GPS, insert your waypoint with dd.hh.mm.ss,sss format (WGS 84) or then put the point as GPX waypoint in to target folder. With compass view you are able to get guidance as close as possible, or in forest you can see your and waypoint's position on terrain map (also in Germany)

[Separate GPS unit or Nokia phone with built-in GPS?]

Anyone out there with experience of a Nokia N95 for geocaching who could tell of their experiences?

 

N95 is great if you add 3. party navigation software in to it, but remember first to update the newest firmware to it. It makes the GPS lot better.

I want to play this game and I need a GPS. Since I also need a phone I thought perhaps the Nokia 6110 Navigator would do both? Apparantly it works fine in citys but noone can tell me how it works in the bush,

can you help?

thanks

 

It works great in bush as well. Depending on usage you might need terrain navigation software as well, e.g. Tracker MyWay Navigator etc.

 

I have used such combination since july and have liked it a lot. Two bad things:

- Not water proof

- Battery life only about 5 hours when GPS is on.

 

I have also Garmin C60 but this is easier to carry with.
