Denver,

Thanks for the link. I'm about to install tangogps once my flashing to
2008.9 gets finished. I was disappointed with Location on OM 2008.8
and Qtopia, which does not have a GPS software.

Thanks. I'm already thrilled. If I had everything setup I could have
traced Starved Rock Park today :-( May be we'll go there again.

Location just allow you to send a location as text message.

Cheers
