Using GPS with Map Software

You can use the GPS feature of your phone to
provide approximate location data to a laptop

interactive map software such as that made by
DeLorme or Microsoft. This way, if your phone has
good access to GPS signals, your approximate
position on a map can be made available as you
travel in a vehicle.
To do this, connect your phone to your laptop (or
other device) with a serial data cable, and set your
phone to transmit data (see "Getting Started" on
page 145). Your phone then provides your
approximate location to the device running the map
