I have sat nav on my T2 and TC. Here is a link to a review I did on the Kirrio system that I use:

MapSonic has since been updated to a new version, but the interface etc remains much the same.

Try these links:

Have fun.

I believe you can also find the software "out there" if you look hard enough...

I just got a Fortuna Bluetooth GPS on ebay for £72.

It is the best one out there I can find as it does 8.5 hours on the battery and hs dual mode for greater accuracy in poor coverage areas. During extensive testing it is **** hot.

The software as I said before is "out there" somewhere
