Its about time for some compatible soft to make an appearance, i m sure that right after a working, official soft appear, we will soon able to get a similar free version of it. But how much long we have to wait?
I was ready to buy this device, but the negative feedback prevented me, of doing so, it seems that was the right choice.
And if i m not mistaken, the device isnt as precise as the surf star III GPS devices, but is it any better than the Nokia built in?

Just got some interesting informations from the author of mobile trail explorer.
http://www.substanceofcode.com/software/mobile-trail-explorer/

He finally got a HGE-100 and he has been loking for a suitable software and found trekbuddy (as com port
you have to choose comm:AT5 and baudrate 9600: http://www.trekbuddy.net/
Also mgmaps supports gps over serial bus.

But both softwares have not the lot of features like mobile trail explorer, so he thinks about implementing HGE-support to his software.

Let'S see and wait.

1. It technically works OK, the problem I have is the software available for it make it of limited use. It comes with a couple of simple apps but neither can do the basic task of saving a waypoint and displaying it. I could also do with something that shows postion in OSGB rather then lat/lon. I gave up on the WayFinder demo SW, as it didn't seem to work and costs to download the maps. I probably wouldn't use it anyway. The headphones work well, but in hindsight I'd just buy HPM-82 (or similar) for less than half the cost and not bother with the GPS function until I get a phone with built in maps. There may be some other apps on the horizon (see previous posts here) which would improve it. However, I am just about to use mine when I go for a run to record the distance I've gone and listen to music while doing it - so it's not a total waste!

2. Couldn't say

Anyone using this with P1i? At first the P1i wasn't supported but it looks like it is now! I'm mostly interested in the Tracker software/function (gonna use running/cycling)

am trying to establish if the connector for this device would allow me to plug in my charger too, since it it does not give you an option to plug in your charger, won't it drain the battery really fast when using the gps?

thanks
