title: Windows Phone 8 GeoCoordinateWatcher vs Geolocator
body: <p>Windows Phone 8 has the <code>GeoCoordinateWatcher</code> which is present in Windows Phone 7, but it also has <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/windows/apps/windows.devices.geolocation.geolocator" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>Geolocator</code></a>, both of which perform the same function, i.e. allow you to 'watch' for changes in geolocation. I can't find any information about whether <code>GeoCoordinateWatcher</code> is deprecated, whether <code>Geolocator</code> should now be used - or the differences between the two. </p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
