Title: SL-C860 USB and GPS question
Post by: Unit21 on June 04, 2004, 03:54:46 pm

Is it possible to connect a standard USB-GPS, like the HaiCom GPS HI-203, to the SL-C860\'s USB port?!

If not, what other options are there?

Advice greatly appreciated!

Don\'t know about getting a USB GPS unit to work, but you can get CF gps units to work ok as well as bluetooth ones (with a bluetooth cf card).

Tried both these and worked fine, though there is a little file tweaking required.

Main problem is software. You can get stuff which gives current location, not directions, but you may need to source maps your own maps.

Anyone has experience with Socket Bluetooth GPS? Good or bad...
