In my quest to GPS enable the LG Vu I acquired a Holux M 1200 (http://www.holux.com/JCore/en/products/products_content.jsp?pno=227) from Amazon for $45. LG Cell Phone Accessories
It’s around the size of a cigarette lighter. I had trouble getting most software to talk to it until I got Mobile Gmaps: http://www.getjar.com/products/8701/MobileGMaps
It’s working and does turn by turn directions a la google maps along with showing your location. It allows you to find a destination and plot route from your current position, which is really all I needed. LG Cell Phone Software
Just wanted to post this working setup to save people trouble. The M1200 comes with a mini usb charger which is also handy for my Sansa Clip, which I also use in the car. It is a 32 channel GPS and locks on really fast, even while sitting in my console, which has a handy cig lighter place to plug in the charger. LG-Vu info
I just paired it to the LG Vu using the bluetooth menu, then Mobile Gmaps was able to list it as a device under the GPS menu and connected right up.
Enjoy!

Today amazon.com offers the LG Solar-Powered Bluetooth Hands-Free Car Kit , model no. HFB-500, for $48.50. LG Cell Phone Accessories
LG Solar-Powered Bluetooth Hands-Free Car Kit Reviews: Excellent design. Easy to operate. Good call quality. Easy and reliable synching with two cellphones. Most functions controlled by a single large press switch (top 20% of device) whose function depends on call and power status, i.e. answer/end, redial, voice dial, manual sync, and audible power status with power-on and whether call is in-progress, and auto sync with power-off. Solar charging feature is outstanding, especially here in Florida. Device has remained fully charged without the need for the supplied car charging adapter. I previously owned the highly rated MOTOROKR T505 speakerphone which was a nuisance to use – I threw it out. I purchased a second LG after two weeks of using the first unit.
