K850i + Bluetooth GPS, what Apps?

    After much humming and hawing and waiting years for a phone that ticked all of the boxes I bought myself a K850i :D

    I've had a bluetooth GPS device for a few years, and have been using it with the K850i and various applications over the last few days.

    After much testing I still haven't found a GPS app. that I like so I'm hoping there are others out there that can suggest something. I have TomTom 6 for Pocket PC and love it. I would like something similar for navigation with the phone and a general tool to record tracks and give details on position, speed etc something like GPS Tuner for Pocket PC.

    My main requirement is that if maps are downloaded on the fly, they can be downloaded over Vodafone Live! i.e. HTTP / HTTPS.

    Here is a list of what I have tried:
    Looks like OSi Street Smart won't work on the K850i

    Thanks in advance!
