The Wiki contains 2 pages: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Making_GPX_Tracks#Series_60_Software_.28for_Bluetooth_GPS.27s.29 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Making_Tracks_with_Homebrew-ware#Mobile_Phones_.2F_Symbian Nokia N71 is a SymbianOS phone, Series60 version 3.1. N71 is only a couple of weeks old so it's not mentioned yet in the Wiki, but all well-written software for S60 3.0 and S60 3.1 should run without problems. Personally I have used Sportstracker (not on N71, but on compatible phones). No map interface during capturing, but the GPX files it produced have been accepted by OSM without any transformation required. If you have problems, let me know and I can try on N71, too. > The device can run java apps, Technically speaking that's not correct. The device can run so-called Java Midlets. These are somewhat limited "applications" for mobile phones or similar portable devices. MGMaps (which has already been mentioned) is a midlet. I haven't used it much recently, but from my earlier experiences I'd definitely recommend it. Last time I looked they had 2 versions, one generic and one N95. Not sure what the difference is. If it's an additional feature the N95-version should be suitable for N71, too. If it's a work-around for some problem, it depends whether the problem has been solved for the newer phone... If you don't have flatrate for your data traffic, be careful with the data volume! And remember that even flatrates don't cover roaming fees. http://www.dslreports.com/shownews/Oh-Look-Another-Ridiculously-Huge-Wireless-Data-Bill-97508 (and I think the story is basically the same one for all operators in all countries) Regards, Uwe On Tue, Sep 9, 2008 at 5:12 PM, Jan Klopper <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > What are the options to get OSM running in display or gathering mode > on a Nokia E71? > The device can run java apps, has enough ram en storage space and an > internal GPS and 3g uplink. > > I'd like to plot roads nearby and disaply maps of my current position. > > Thanks, > Jan > > _______________________________________________ > newbies mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies > _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
