I've just got the Nokia 6220c which has GPS. Can you connect to the phones GPS via google earth on a laptop/PC. I ask because I want to go bike riding and walking over the summer and take laptop with me using mobile broadband to upload data and pictiures to the net.

What you are asking about is called "Geo-tagging". It might be possible to enter the geo-data in manually rather than using GPS data which it will convert to location data anyway.
