I have a Samsung Omnia i910 (Verizon Omnia) which has built-in GPS that I use with google maps and whatnot on the phone. Can I use the phone via bluetooth or USB as a GPS device for my laptop running Windows 7 so I can effectively have GPS on my laptop?

What I mean is, you hear the stories of the people who die from programming their GPS while driving, or looking at their GPS and not the road for to long. So, in Canada or the whole world, how many people die from those kind of GPS accidents in a year? Thanks for your help!

Trying to get to a destination that does not have an "address" but the GPS coordinates are provided. I would like to know how can enter these GPS coordinates for the destination in the COMAND navigation system.

I purchased and installed a Double Din Car DVD Player GPS Navigation TV in my car and also purchased the SD card but I don't know how to download or where I can buy the software to download maps to the card. Help!

I want to know where my car is when my teens are out running around. I don't want them to know that the gps is installed in the car. Secret!

Do you know of a cheap affordable GPS that I will be able to use for planning out elk hunts, and that will be able to help me get back to the truck?
I just wanted to ask everone that is level two or over to vote low rating for Newell please. Thanks.

Hi everyone,
I have a trouble receiving a satellite connection to my GPS.
I installed the software into my new GPS device(Garmin Streetpilot i3) but my location is a factory installed location.It has not changed a bit.
What have I done worng? Or, what would you suggest me to do to fix this problem?
Appreciate your help.

I have been looking for a good gps that isn't too pricey that I can use for geocaching and road navigation so that I can use it on walks though the city that my school is in because I do not know the roads around there and don't want to get lost. Are there any gps models that are good for that. And I am talking about handheld gps units, not the car units.

My job has issused me a 0 dollar voucher to buy the best GPS I can find, any suggestions?

My friend recently purchased a car from a local dealership. In the contract he signed a waiver stating, the gps tracking device could be in his car. If he ever missed a payment, the car would just turn off. Is this legal? And he never missed a payment, and now his car refuses to turn out. Changed the fuel pump, fuel filter, battery is testing fine, ignition is turning over.

Im late on my car note and I dont want to get repossed. I know theres a secret gps device unit locate somewhere in or on my car. I have a new benz and i know theres a factory gps and a aftermarket gps installed by the used car dealership where i purchase the car from.

Im just wandering can it be track if I park inside my garage at my house? Thanks.

i dont want to spend over 0 on a gps unit and i've seen some at wal-mart within my price range will those work for geocaching?

I have a USB GPS receiver on my laptop with Sprint cellular mobile broadband.

I work as a college admission counselor, and travel to community colleges twice a week. I would like to get a GPS navigation system, as I've discovered that I lack an inner compass and frequently get lost (my atlas has been helpful, but it is dangerous to consult it while driving). I would think that 90% or more of my usuage of this product would be business related, but I don't know if I would be able to write this off since I'm not self-employed. Any thoughts?

I'm planning to buy myself a pair of over the ear headphones that will prove to be valuable and expensive. Are their companies making GPS tracking devices for small, but valuable, items like these? If so, which do you recommend and why? Give me the specs on the GPS you recommend, too. I'm looking to be frugal with purchasing a GPS device. Thanks!
