GPS

[David Steward]

Is anyone using a GPS system with their PowerBook? I would lie to usemy
G3 PowerBook with the Route 66 software in the same way as I use my iPAQ
hadheld with the TOMTOM software.

I have a Garmin III+ wired to my WallStreet both powered from the
cigarette lighter socket, that I use to navigate around the Lower 48
when I am on roadtrips. SteetAtlas does just fine for software. I am
looking at the new Delorma USB GPS Receiver @ $99US, which would clean
up the wireing abit. Now if I could just get the Wallsteet to talk to
the Digital Cellphone, (nokia 51xx) things would be "Just Spiffy"

I use my Duo-280c with a Garmin GPS 12 in my work pickup. I use a
program called GPSy. For my purposes it is very useful. A good place
to start looking for all the GPS info that exists is:

I've been looking for a solution to let my Lombard to talk to a Nokia
5100 series cellphone. I think there's a PCMCIA card modem that's
cellular capable, but I have never been able to get a definitive
answer on how to hook it up and make it work.
