It also works with operating systems such as Windows Mobile, Palm and S60 v3. Garmin Mobile XT is compatible with a wide range of smartphones including models by Sony Ericsson, HP, Nokia, HTC and Samsung. This makes it possible to send your position to any other phone as well as view and navigate to the location of other Garmin Mobile XT users. You can also keep track of friends and family and navigate to them at the touch of a button with a special feature called PeerPoints. This software package is bundled with the Garmin GPS 10 and 20 packages. This updated version of the Garmin Mobile XT Palm OS application adds compatibility for the Treo 650, 680, 700p.
Unlike other mobile phone applications, Garmin Mobile XT offers convenient preloaded maps and includes access to dynamic content like premium real-time traffic alerts and weather reports but does not require any monthly fees (except for safety camera alerts). Garmin has released a major software update for Palm OS users of their GPS 10 package. It then gives you the ability to navigate anywhere in the UK, Europe or the United States and Canada. Garmin Mobile XT is simply a card (microSD, miniSD or standard SD card – whichever your phone takes) that you slot into your handset. You can now turn almost any smartphone with internal GPS into a Garmin sat-nav. So make sure you’ve got Garmin Mobile XT on it. It’s the one thing you never forget – your mobile phone.
