I would stay clear of Wayfinder as it uses your Data connection to download maps (hence it becomes costly).
Not necessarily true. You can also download maps from mywayfinder.com to have them static on your memory card.
Also, with dynamic maps the download is very light. I have 300MB free on my 3G account so using dynamic maps is the best choice for me since they are always up-to-date.
Edit: Typo

From looking around a bit it seems like there is no keylock api easily available for UIQ3 programmers. I suppose that it why Tomtom doesn't prevent the keylock.
Does anyone have any solution to this problem other than turning automatic keylock off? I guess the other solution would be a profile manager (whenever that would be available)? Ideally I think there should be a setting in UIQ3 to select some programs for which the keylock should not be turned on.

Can't be that hard because Wayfinder can do just this. There is no problem with key lock when using Wayfinder. |

That's interesting. Does anyone know if Garmin also works correctly with the keylock? |

Does any one know if Garmin has any version that work on P1i with a non-proprietary GPS? I already have a perfectly fine GPS unit and I don't feel like paying another $100 for one that probably isn't as good as the one I have anyway. |

I'm using the Garmin mobile XT on my TyTN II (using built in GPS) but I haven't seen a UIQ3 version available yet
here is their mobile products page

I think garmin has a generic symbian version of Xt which , correct me if I'm wrong, should work on S60 and UIQ 3.
I'll test it in the days to come and will report here. |

About Auto Key Lock, I suggest you do the same I did, that is to create a shortcut to Key Lock next to the Tom Tom shortcut that you can easily click activate/deactivate without much hassle.

I have no idea where to buy it  but here are links for the apps:
http://www8.garmin.com/suppor[....]ction.jsp?product=010-00579-00
The MapSource City Navigator maps work fine with garmin although you will have to find a method of activating the maps.
I don't actually use it because my P1i is dead and I plan on getting a W960, I have seen an image(s) of it successfully running on W960, which the image is now gone.

ah right, so maybe its currently only available as part of the mobile 10 package where you also get a garmin bluetooth GPS
the garmin XT for windows mobile is a standalone solution which is preferable to purchase when you have a built in gps
I guess since P1 doesn't have a built in GPS this makes more sense now. thanks!

I got TT6 already loaded on my P1i when I bought it! - never used GPS software before - but it seems pretty good, warnings on speed cameras etc.
It came with a CPIT GP-27 receiver www.cpit.com/en/GP-27.html
Which seems to do the job - but does take quite a while to log in the position... perhaps it's where I put it or whatever :?
