Hi all,

Hope i'm on the right discussion here.

I have the iPad (WiFi only) and wanting to know if there is a way of using it as any kind of sat nav because it has a MUCH longer battery life than my iPhone and a much bigger screen.

I also have a Jentro Activepilot bluetooth GPS receiver and tried to link it up with my iPad, but, as expected, the iPad doesn't "see" it.

I wrote to some guy on ebay because he was selling a bluetooth gos on ebay for £29 and he claimed his would work with the non-3G iPad. Although he was a little sketchy because he said that i would have to download software to get the iPad to "see" his bluetooth GPS. He didn't know where i would get the software from, or what it was called ! Sad

So, basically my question is, can i get my Jentro Activepilot to work as a bluetooth GPS receiver with my non-3G iPad ?. Or, failing that is there any other way to get the non-3G iPad working as an accurate GPS receiver. I have already bought a UK & Ireland app from the app store for my iPhone 4 so if i could find a bt receiver which would work on the iPad then that would be excellent !

Best Regards,
Andy
