New easy way to put geocaches in Nokia Phones

I in theory I use Linux full-time for my geocaching needs, but as said all the software is for Windows. So I have a virtual Windows installation in VirtualBox. It works fine for the gps stuff as it supports usb. Distro is Ubuntu and Nokia E71 as GPS with separate bluetooth gps. The integrated one is useless, because of its inaccuracy.

Has anyone tried seeking caches with Nokia E71? I tried to find one very easy cache which was just couble dozen meters in the woods. E71's accuracy was near 100meters. So finding the cache was nearly impossible as there were a lot of rocks and other good places where it could have been hidden. My old and cheap bluetooth-gps was much more accurate (I sold it because I bought E71 ). Is every E71 so inaccurate? Any suggestion for separate bluetooth-device with really good accurary?
