First the requisite picture of all the stuff out of the box. Not pictured is a car charger with a new nokia style 2.5mm connector, just the one charger for the GPS and Tablet but I guess you can always run one on it’s battery while the other is charging.

It is really nice that now almost all my Nokia gear uses the exact same charger.

The Navicore software installer crashed under Vista, first time that happened to me. I then used a Windows XP machine to run the installer. You pick the locations (USA East, USA West, and Canada) and voices depending on how much of the included 2GB MiniSD card you want to fill up.

While that installer was copying a GB over USB I paired the LD-W3 GPS with my N80ie and started up the Nokia Maps app, it worked perfect! The GPS locked on fast and worked great even indoors.

The funniest thing I noticed is that the intersection on the Nokia box happens to be Route 2 and 495 which is about 10 miles from my house!

I am really excited to take this out on the road!
