Popular outdoor navigation tool, Trimble Outdoors, is going Android, “turning the G1 into a full-featured GPS navigator and geotagging tool for hiking, backpacking, fishing and other outdoor activities.”
The press release only talks about the T-Mobile G1, but we guess the application is/will be available for the other Android phones in the coming weeks, as well.
There’s also a web component that allows users to:
- Review and plan trips
- Send routes, maps and waypoints wirelessly to the G1
- Share photo, text and audio notes
- Access other people’s trips
Price wise, Trimble Outdoors costs $19.99 and it’s readily available in the Android Market…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
