Thing is, we have better hardware than Nokia in terms of GPS. They use an AGPS
solution which is just part of the chipset they use. It's not a powerful
standalone GPS unit.
I'm not sure if it will be possible to have a turn by turn routing system for this phone.
Maybe if someone could do a version of WINE but using the Windows Mobile API we
could just run their apps? :)
Tomtom - the hardware units - run on comparable hardware to the Neo.
Arm under linux.
It's not completely impossible that it could be convinced in software to
run a copy of the hardwares software.
The UI is broadly compatible - screen of a sort-of-similar size to the
minimal one, and touchscreen.
The mobile phone one costs $99.
It's not eventually that unrealistic to expect that FIC could buy at
half this, and sell to end users installed on shipped phones at $75 say.
Which is quite reasonable.
