Ebay item 303857097673, there are loads similar for 8 -10 quid.

Works brilliantly with a Samsung tablet, but won't pair with my old cheapo Chinese android phone - presumably an older BT version?

I use OS maps on memory map for trail riding, ability to zoom in/ out on the fly is great.

Waterproofing and longevity is till TBA, but a proper Carpe Iter BT controller costs 20 times as much...

I've been wondering about doing a fun event or two but I didn't want to fall foul of insurance etc so I've not bothered.
Maybe a group of friends can get away with taking turns creating routes?

Provisionally In, we would need a common plateform, for myself I have no hardware as yet, cost would be an important factor. Even if I do not go down the road of getting a user setup on my bike for myself, I would be happy to put a route together for an "invited" group around my local patch.
You would want to keep it to a few local friends, an informal summer evening thing maybe.

I've just setup voice access and can easily control a PDF roadbook, OziExplorer is a little more difficult due to me having set up secret buttons on my main map for zoom and menus but I can scroll around easy enough.
Has anyone else tried voice control with Android?
