SD Card turns your cell phone into GPS device
Here’s yet another example of brilliance. For €79.00 you can buy a McGuider SD card that you can put into your cell phone. Just like anything with auto-play on your computer, the card will then automatically install the software which will access your GPS chip.
After that, voila! Your cell phone is no longer just a phone, it’s a GPS device too. It uses TeleAtlas maps and is compatible at this time with Symbian and Windows Mobile handsets.
That’s a great idea. It’s not really any more expensive than a separate GPS device would be (in fact, it’s much cheaper than some on the market!), and as a bonus it lets you use something you already own. While it’s fun, for me at least, to have lots of neat “toys” to play with, this also means that you have one less thing to carry around with you.
