    GPS for VZW XV6800

    Hi, I have ordered a VZW XV6800 phone and would like suggestions on a compatible BT GPS receiver and software. I'd like long battery life, ease of charging and dependable satellite reception and BT pairing.   I've read reviews for the TomTom Navigator and it seems like a good choice for the software, so compatibility with that is importaant too. If you have a bundle that works well with the XV6800, please advise.  I have a trip planned 8/24 so I'd like to get this ordered right away.

     Thank you.

    Hi. Thanks for your post.

    TomTom Navigator 6 is a great choice as well as Garmin Mobile XT (with real-time traffic data, hotel rates, gasoline, movie showtime, etc but you need to have an Internet connection to access these live info).

    Note: Garmin Mobile XT may be used on your phone for door-to-door navigation software just like (TomTom Navigator 6 ) without the need for Internet connection / data plan. You only need an Internet connection if you wish to obtain the live info.

    Please consider this packages below for:

    Garmin Mobile XT: http://www.buygpsnow.com/Garmin-Mobile-XT-US-MicroSDMiniSD-Software--plus--GlobalTop-G33-51-ch-MTK-Bluetooth-GPS-Receiver-(WAAS--20hr--5hz-Update-Rate--Auto-Off)__1027.aspx

    or TomTom Navigator 6: http://www.buygpsnow.com/tomtom-navigator-6-us-canada-qstarz-bt-q818-32ch-32hr-bluetooth-gps-receiver-for-pocketpc-palm-nokia-and-smartphone-free-arkon-mount-761.aspx 

    Hope this helps.

    If I understand correctly, with the Navigator 6 from TomTom, I need a data plan for my phone for door-to-door navigation?  But not so with the Garmin?

     Also, when I clicked on the link for the TomTom and receiver, my phone wasn't listed under the compatibility check.

    No, with TomTom 6 and Garmin Mobile XT, you DO NOT need a data plan for door-to-door navigation because all the maps are stored on the memory card.

    TomTom 6 does NOT come with a memory card, so you must get one yourself. A minimum of 1GB is required but 2GB is recommended.

    Garmin Mobile XT already comes with a 2GB microSD Card included with maps of USA + Canada and program pre-loaded / pre-copied.

    Yes, Mogul is a new phone and not yet certified by TomTom to run with their TomTom Navigator 6. Many of our Mogul customers confirmed TT6 works on their phone when used with a Bluetooth GPS receiver.

    Great, can you get to Ohio by Friday?  I'll order the receiver and TT6 from the link above.
