I bought it here:

I just explained to geir-ove in a PM how I contacted their support since I had the same problem he did.

You are supposted to download the program directly to your phone and that doesnt seem to work with all countries.

You cant compare this with TomTom, TomTom is for road navigation and is much more advanced then you can get on a java-based cell-phone today(that doesnt run Symbian).
This is a GPS utility with a handful of very useful functions and I would say a break-though when it comes to navigation with a simple cell-phone.

@The_Morgue
Yes, I understand what you mean.
No, it uses two screens.. one where you see the map and there is a cross showing where you are. The map is shown in 1:1 and scroll around as you move.
The other screen shows your track (draws a line as you move). You can save that track and transfer it to your computer when you get home and load it into OziExplorer and there the track will show up on the map.

I would guess they will change this in later releases so the track is drawn on the map. But its not a big deal to me.

Here in Germany you can buy a Nokia 6670 mit Route 66. What functionality does the 6670 have which enables it to use Route 66. Surely this is just software based? And would Sony not be about to update the K750i to enable it to have this very useful GPS Nav functionality?

Nokia 6670 is a symbian series 60 based smartphone
K750 is not.

Is symbian software based, would it be possible to up grade the K750i to run symbian software?

I know the P series is capable, I had a P900 but did not like it as a phone. I just think it would be a good addition for the K750. Especially here in Germany were every man and his dog as GPS Navigation!!
