review

By Davis D. Janowski

Summerville, South Carolina, December 25, 2006—I spent a fun-filled, if damp, day here, in moderate to heavy rain with my wife and daughter. The weather, needless to say, bestowed little amusement, but new mobile software—really more of a game—delivered plenty. Geocache Navigator from Trimble Outdoors is the first application I've used that melds the GPS receiver included in a number of models of mobile phones with the Web for use in geocaching. The software works with the very popular (and hardware-neutral) Groundspeak Inc. Web site, www.geocaching.com—a recent Web site of the week.

Bottom Line
