Mobile Navigation Software

srg2712 · May 21st, 2011, 11:28 AM

Hi all, I am new to the forum having just bought an Archos 70 250gb Internet tablet, I am just getting my head around things and Android in particular, I would like to ask for any help in getting my 70 to use mobile navigation, do I need any other hardware or software apart from the sattelite navigation program.
Thanks in anticipation,
Kind regards, Steve.

The Archos tablets do not have GPS built in so you would need a Bluetooth GPS receiver. You can find them on Amazon for not too much.

The Archos 5 IT DOES have built-in GPS hardware. In order to use it Archos wants you to signup and pay $34 for the priviledge. I tried to buy it the other day from Archos and the offer had been disabled. Is there an App that can be used with the Archos builtin GPS?
