Windows Phone Thoughts: Introducing PicoWare PicoGPSSa for Speed Monitoring and GPS Statistics

"PicoGPSSa is a small GPS-based utility application developed for Windows Mobile Pocket PC devices that allows the user to set monitor speed and set warning sounds when the speed is exceeded. It also has numerous GPS status features including satellite quality indicators on main page, satellite skychart, heading, Lat, Long and UTM coordinates etc."



Here's a nifty GPS utility for the masses. Think of PicoGPSSa as a GPS enabled speedometer that can alert you both visually and audibly whenever you've exceeded a user-defined speed limit. The alerting can be customized to two modes: normal and highway driving. In addition, PicoGPSSa has the ability to give you surrounding GPS satellite information including location, signal strength, and whether it is being used for a GPS fix or not. I couldn't decipher what the cost was, but a trial download is available at the provided link.

Update:The licensing cost is a low $5 USD. The application will run with all features enabled for the first 15 uses. After those 15 uses, the application will continue to operate, but with reduced features until the application is licensed.
