Then export to google earth and watch your journey. What is really cool is to use sports tracker from nokia and track the whole flight. Then export to google earth and watch your journey.

I was actually using my Nokia E61, I made that my dedicated GPS device after I bought the E61i. I am using App version 6.01.

Can you tell us what version of TomTom you are using please? I tried V6.02(0) on the latest E61i firmware and the app wouldn't start up. Feedback from other forums says TomTom 6 won't work on an E61i.... Cheers, Mark. Cool. Can you tell us what version of TomTom you are using please?

On a loosely related note: what cradle/mount would you guys would recommend for the car (with E61i)? I need it for travel, so it needs to be easy mount on the windshield (and light). Any thoughts/experience? Interesting.

Prepared in advance a written request for pilots explaining the passive nature of a gps receiver. Permission was always granted at cruising altitude. It was fun although back then the magelan had a hard time locking onto 3 or more satellites. Glad to here technology makes it easier today, especially with an e-series device!

Basically, if you are sitting by the window and leave the GPS receiver on the elbow support you have no problem with the signal. It is also cool to use it during take-off and landing to observe the attitude-speed pattern. It seems that most planes stay at take-off speed of 260-280 km/h until they reach 500 m altitude then gain a little bit of speed then go to a mixed speed and attiude gain. Regarding the bluetooth/phone/wifi not use during flight. It is all bullshit. You should not use the cell phone during take-off and landing because it confuses the terrestrial towers. However the impact on the plane system is nil. I reckon 2-4 years from now all use will be freely allowed.
