Gps

[Allen Whitehead]

Is there a Bluetooth Gps available that will work with the Surface Pro and Bing Maps?

Have you used the gps receiver with the Surface Pro and Bing Maps. I was able to get another GPS receiver to work with Google Maps on my Surface, but not with Bing maps. That is when i called Microsoft and was unable to find settings in Bing Maps to get it to work.

No, I do not have a Surface Pro. I just saw that GPS receiver in the WPCentral store. I would suggest sending customer service an email and asking them if it works with Bing maps. Customer service is support@wpcentral.com

Thanks. I will try that.

I did talk to Microsoft and they did not know how to get it to work.

 

[DBDev]

Gave you tried it or just talked to them?

i bought a Bluetooth GPS from Garmin and tried it. I called Garmin and they could get it to work with Google Maps. there were no settings in Bing Maps to get the GPS to work. that is when i called Microsoft.
