Apple asked:


I’m trying to decide whether to purchase the blackberry 8120 (which has wifi) or wait for the 8130 (GPS)?

What is the difference though? I am aware what wifi is but what exactly does GPS do?

Thanks alot.

PUNNY POETRESS asked:


knowledge whatsoever about GPS systems, I thought I would ask my buddies at Yahoo Answers their opinions. Please let me know your thoughts from all perspectives: ease of use, portability , and cost, too. I always wonder if salesreps are just trying to sell me the most expensive model or, for that matter, one that they are trying to get rid of!! Thanks, in advance!

How do the GPS capabilities of new mobile phones compare to the GPS models by Garmin, TomTom, etc?

Carter asked:


For example, compared to the Garmin Nuvi series, or something similar. Is it like comparing apples to oranges?

Can some phones be used as car navigation? How good are they at pedestrian navigation?

I’m considering buying a GPS, probably a Garmin Nuvi 750, but if my next cell phone might fulfill the same duties, maybe I won’t.

Thanks for any information or advice!
