Some specifications about your phone might be helpful, as well as which WM version you're running.

The best way is to use a Bluetooth GPS.

The apache does NOT have a GSP reciever, software is ir relevant unless it can recieve a gps signal, you can use google maps then bluetooth to a gps reciever however the 1st thing needed is a reciever as MF said

A Bluetooth GPRS Receiver and Google Maps is a good start for the Apache.

a GPRS receiver? I would love to see one of those! Almost like a "worldmode" apache! Well you can use any old GPRS phone for that

(Mauricio, I think you made a wee slip, you mean "GPS receiver")
