Do you trust off-board navigation system

coolbzl · 30-05-2006

Who has the experience of using the Nav4All navigation system while you are out? Am I correct in thinking that any Bluetooth mobile phone can be turned in to a GPS device and how does it work? I ask this because I do a lot of mountain bike riding and quite often I get lost so having a handy GPS device with my phone would be great, are they expensive?

I have no idea about your question, but i would have thought that for mountain biking something like a Garmin eTrex would be better, as it's purpose designed, has replaceable batteries, and is very robust and weather resistant.
Also, if you're riding your bike off road, a road-based satnav might not be too useful.
