Thinking about getting a new mobile phone. and fancy a Nokia with GPS tracking. Like the [url= http://europe.nokia.com/find-products/devices/nokia-c5-00/specifications ]C5[/url].

I have heard that there are Apps which convert the lat/long data into OS grid, and that would be a useful thing to have. And a google turned up this: [url= http://utmdata.blogspot.com/ ]UTMdata[/url] which looks like it does what I want.

But I am stupid and don't understand phones. Will that Nokia run Apps? How do you install them?

Anyone enlighten me and give me a numpty's guide to modern mobile phones?

EDIt: (sorry worng forum)

That phone should do what you want. Installing apps is easy, either download them straight to the phone via the net or download to a PC then connect via bluetooth or a cable. Takes seconds. I've got a nokia 5800 which is a nice mapping phone as it has a decent screen size and good battery life and its cheap. Loads of good navigation apps out there; viewranger for os maps, sportstracker for logging, ovi maps for road navigation, + plenty more
