GPS & Mobile Phone Combined?

Q. Is there a mobile phone on the market which I can use as a GPS unit for walking?

I thought it might save carrying both.

Laura Liddell

A. I use a Nokia N95 which has a build in GPS. Ive also installed the viewranger software on my phone (cost about £60). It is without doubt a fantastic piece of software and works great on the N95. Full interacive mapping in the palm of your hand!

Hope this helps
