I think the best program to create GPX traces is Nokia SportsTracker.

OK, maybe Nokia Sports tracker is worth a shot. What is its best feature? I couldn't get gpsmid working on my phone: the applet is too big. I see one can build custom builds with the maps in the filesystem, so maybe later...

Hmm, SportsTracker is an actual Nokia product, which might be good for integration, but:

1) it's closed source, commercial freeware, which is a bit of a minus

2) The website has a list of phones for which you can download it, and mine (not having built-in GPS) isn't in the list. I could probably research which of the phones are closest to mine and give it a shot, but I'm not sure it would install.

3) MobileTrailExplorer seems to be working OK so far.

I'm sorry, didn't noticed that you have non symbian phone. SportsTracker is only for Nokia symbian smartphone aviable.
