Spot GPS Tool supports BlackBerry 8703e
I just discovered on the website of Skylab Mobilesystems that their widely used GPS tool Spot now also supports the BlackBerry 8703e. Take a look to the Spot for 8703e page which exactly tells what features are available on the 8703e. So far I have seen that this is quite similar to the already established GPS-BlackBerrys 7100i & 7520.

[...] Just some weeks ago we mentioned “Spot GPS Tool supports BlackBerry 8703e”. Now we have discovered the ’supported devices’ range is growing and the BlackBerry Pearl got its place there. So Attention Pearl users, as most of you think: “I don’t need that - I already have BlackBerry Maps…” That is not the point as “Spot” is not a navigation system like the BlackBerry Maps which allows you to be routed to some address. The Spot tool brings some other features, as it seems not to be designed to give driving directions it features a quite good waypoint management, a weak tracklog integration (vendor says: “will be upgraded soon”), nice mapping features like streetlevel maps and a flexible OGC WMS integration. It also works with all current BlackBerrys that have ether a built-in GPS receiver or Bluetooth support for connecting to a Bluetooth GPS. As the BlackBerry Pearl does not have a built-in one you might need an external Bluetooth GPS receiver. So if you are looking for one you’ll find some recommended ones at their site. [...]
