How do I connect a Pharos USB GPS receiver to a PDA?

Qtek 9100 PDA, Pharos USB GPS receiver (from Microsoft Streets and Trips)

What equipment is available to utilise the receiver as a bluetooth GPS receiver.

Recommend a good US/ Europe mapping program

  • with no model number for the pharos it is hard to tell.

    the ones i found after a quick 'google' did not have bluetooth.

    the qtek has a mini usb connector while the reciever seems to come with full size usb connector.

    therefore, either purchase a new bluetooth reciever or a standard to mini usb adapter.

    there is a nation of mapping software that will work with windows pocket pc OS, some cheaper than others but i would think tom tom is one of the most popular.

  • Yeah, you commonly get a bluetooth GPS receiver protected in a tomtom kit deal. once you're procuring seperates it truly is needed to make certain you get one, and understand that you ned to recharge or have plugged on your PDA & the bluetooth GPS, so its worth getting a cig lighter doubler. purchase the completed kit is my advice, bit more suitable severe priced perhaps, yet you get a cradle, legal application & the bluetooth GPS.. perhaps a loose ability doubler in case you haggle!
