Phone with GPS and Wifi

DESQ · 2009-07-14 09:07:41

Can anyone recommend a good phone with GPS and WIFI? Do I need to be on the internet to use the GPS function? I’d like a phone with a camera above 3.2MP and pre-pay but that isn’t an issue as I can try get the phone 2nd hand unlocked, Price isn’t an issue,

Does the 5800 have a LED light or Xenon Flash?

the Nokia E71 is a handy phone too. It has a qwerty keyboard which makes texting and blogging really easy. Trust me, I have the phone myself and am using it right now :pac:

Has wifi and GPS. 3.2 MP camera.

You can also save maps onto your phone so there's no need to use the internet all the time for it.

The only problem is you do have to sign up to some Nokia service to give you directions on the GPS. Costs 12 a year I think.
