Trial version--"not smartphone"

By geobudman - Posted on 06 December 2007

I  am currently researching gps/mapping programs that I can use for Geocaching and extremely light surveying (marking landlines, etc.) that will work with a BT gps receiver and my ATT (HTC) 8525 smartphone running Windows Mobile 5.  While checking out the trial page, it mentions "NOT SMART PHONE".  Will BCN work at all with this set up?

Yes.

ATT 8525 can be *called* a "smartphone", but it runs "Windows Mobile 5 for Pocket PC", not "Windows Mobile 5 for SmartPhone".

The difference is usually "does it have a stylus?"

Outstanding!!

Thanks for the quick reply--if the software works this well, you have a true gem!

I will be checking this out as soon as Santa brings my GPS receiver sometime around the end of this month, after Wifey and I discover how much the kids have set back our budget.

Thanks again for the reply!
