Geocaching with an iPod


Recommended Posts

So I've got a new iPod Touch (3G) and I've been looking for a geocaching app that can read GPX files. I know about the "official" GC iPhone app and assume that it works with an iPod and have seen "GeoSphere" which looks good. Before shelling out I wondered if anybody has any experience with either of those apps or knows of any others.

 

Also, does anyone know of a way of linking a bluetooth GPS unit with the iPod?

I've got a ipod touch, alot of the applications are limited as you need access to the net, but I've got a offline solution using greasemonkey script GC Tour, free windows software Bullzip to print to pdf and free ipod app Discover to view the pdf on the touch. Works very well

 

Follow this visual walkthrough I've done of what to do on the windows side:-
