GPS with N75

I am looking to get a bluetooth GPS unit to go with my n800 Internet
Tablet, so I can do maps and such. My question is will I be able to
use this GPS unit with my N75 running S60, 3rd edition to do maps on
it?

I know the N95 has built-in GPS, but with an external bluetooth GPS,
is it possible to load the maps on my 2GB microSD card and link up the
GPS? I am sure I would need some sort of app to run this. What would
that be?

thanks,
K

Sorry, meant to post to whole group!

Anyway ...

Kevin,

I got myself one of these to go with my N73 and using it with Nokia Maps
1.2. Works a treat.

Only a pity they haven't made Nokia Maps 2.0 compatible with this handset
(requires feature pack 1 apparently)!!

My son gave me this one for Christmas.

It seems to work just fine. I am concerned about the future though.
The new version of Nokia Maps does not seem to run on the N-75.

Nokia maps is shite though, use Garmin Mobile XT, much better

But you cannot argue the price. I don't use it very much, but every
now and then it is handy.
