Sat Nav

I have been using SAT NAV for the last few years on a REALLY old IPAQ, I think it was the first model they did... no memory.. no card slots, no bluetooth. It would of probably been laid to rest in a drawer a long time ago if it wasnt for TOM TOM SAT NAV. Even on this dinosour it worked really well.

I decided to give TOM TOM 5 a try on the XDA. The old GPS mouse wouldnt work on the XDA EXEC without a convertor so I decided to get a new Bluetooth GPS mouse to try and save on some cables and make the solution a bit more portable.

I went for a Holux GPSLIM 236 device from here http://www.clove.co.uk/products/products.asp?strAreaNo=400_5_6&intElement=24280.

Only done a quick road test so far and it seemed to work well. When an incoming call comes in it stays on the SATNAV screen and mutes the directrions volumes. I am off to Manchester in the morn so will give it a good run then.
