I’m trying to decide whether to purchase the blackberry 8120 (which has wifi) or wait for the 8130 (GPS)?

What is the difference though? I am aware what wifi is but what exactly does GPS do?

Thanks alot.

What is the best GPS System that allows multiple stops & route optimization?

lilystang asked:


I am looking to purchase a good GPS unit for my car. I would like a unit that will have audio directions, can allow to input multiple stops & can optimize a route with those stops.

Currenlty, Microsoft Streets & Trips works works well although using a laptop in the car is not exactly safe.

I have read a few reviews for some GPS systems, but many reviews conflict each other. Any suggestions?

Is there a way to track gps navigations already in a vehicle versus buying a separate gps tracking device?

sunshine_grin asked:


They sell gps tracking devices for hundreds of dollars, but isn’t there a way to just track the current gps navigation that is used in a car? Why have 2 devices if you can use the current one. Don’t both use satelite to get locations etc?
