This week, we’ve got another N78 to give away thanks to Nokia. But this time, the question’s a little bit tougher: In 25 words or less, we need you to tell us: “What’s the best way you would make use of the integrated GPS functionality on the new Nokia N78?“. Answers in comments to this post – I’ll be judging this one on Friday at 5pm.
So start entering! This is your last chance at N78 greatness!

We just recently had a team building day at the corporate office and it was themed amazing race. As teams we had to decipher clues and race around Perth to obtain pit stops/answers to complete the race. If I had the Nokia N78 with its integrated gps function, our team would not only be able to get locations entered into the phone but access street maps! We would be undefeated (This is assuming someone in our team can read maps).
Oh Nokia help us with your uber leet phone!
Go Red team! Go!

I’d load a custom app to send the GPS coordinates to my phone so that I could track my girlfriend ;)

Take geo-tagged photos of iPhone owners’ envious faces. Plot these points on a map to reveal the location of the Mac community inner sanctum.

Duct-tape it to the Pope-mobile, and have it SMS Pontiff location messages to the Chaser guys so they can get arrested for annoying the pope.

I would use the GPS function to make sure Taxi’s don’t rip you off when travelling. IE check they are going most direct route.

With Nokia’s quality reception I’ll be able to roam the streets instead of networks; whilst having the N78′s awesome A-GPS to guide me!
