<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">there exists various APIs for GPS location data in OS2007. These APIs should be used by applications instead of connecting directly to BT GPS device. The APIs enable multiple applications to receive positioning data simultaneously i.e., one application cannot steal the GPS device to itself.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">As an example of the API usage, I created wiki page at <A HREF="http://maemo.org/maemowiki/HowToUseGPSFrameworkInOS2007">http://maemo.org/maemowiki/HowToUseGPSFrameworkInOS2007</A>. The wiki page describes geotagging application that uses the GPS APIs in OS2007.</FONT></P>
