Hi guys,
Can any one suggest me a good GPS enabled fone within 15k.
i hav shortlisted Nokia 6110.

Also on SE site they say k660i, phone has maps and navigation services.

Is it same as 6110 or it will use Google map with GPRS ?

If GPS is ur primary need sony ericsson k530i(7.2k) which paired with HGE-100 GPS enabler(4K) is pretty good.. And at around 11k pretty economical..

ruturaj3, think u should go in for the Asus P320 ..

The specs of Asus P320 GPS handset include:

* Quad-band GSM )850/900/1800/1900), GPRS, EDGE connectivity
* TI OMAP 850 200 MHz CPU, 1280 ROM/64 RAM
* Windows Mobile Pro 6.1
* 2.8″ QVGA 320×240 px TFT LCD touchscreen
* 2 Megapixel camera
* Built-in SiRF III GPS
* Bluetooth 2.0, USB 2.0
* MicroSD memory card slot

Price Rs 12900 official ... Grey market, you could get a better deal.

OR

If you can get your hands on a secondhand ORBIT ... Thats good too.

C702 great cam , but can't confirm its "gprs maps"

6110 has symbian so u won't get bored and also nokia maps can be preloaded so no gprs cost.

But if u can increase ur budget by around 4k , u will get a much better phone (N82) than the above two which has all the features u want and even more.

C702 has wayfinder and google maps preinstalled, so no need of gprs. through C702 , you can geotag your photos and also access your location at amy time.

Did some searching about c702 and it seems

Google maps although preinstalled requires gprs for maps.
Wayfinder maps con loaded in memory card.

So do check Wayfinder before buying C702 or any other phone, check whether ur comfortable with it and most important is check out its indian map or the city u want. Check whether it is well detailed and accurate.
