Firstly a HUGE thank you to all of the contributers and dvelopers of this brilliant site and forum.
I spent some time here in the Xmas hols and found everything I needed to make up my mind, get and configure my new PDA. The links that people put on led me to various suppliers and here is what I ended up with.
02 XDA11 on 400 min tarrif for £139
Rikaline Bluetooth GPS for £137 - yep not a wire in site.
Tom Tom software £105 from Tom Tom
and heres what I learnt here to make it work!
Towa's awesome application to configure the bluetooth.
Tom Tom upgrade from their site to GPS 2.09 and Navigator 2.24
The code to enter the Rikaline (1234)
Everything works awesomely, a fully mobile solution for under £400 with PDA.
I hope that helps a few of the newcomers and again - THANK YOU all for your help.
Happy XDAing

Hi I was just wondering if anyone has any comments on which is the best sat nav program Tom Tom 3 Nav or Alturion 6. I am using tom tom at the moment but having a few problems so might switch to alturion.
I've used both and I do believe that Alturion is the better of the two.
+ The fact that you have an PC-application as well as an pda one
+ you can combine different maps and make them as one, so you don't have to change maps at the border. Tom Tom has European roads, but then it lacks the detail where you want it. Alturion you can have like the area where you start, 5km around your planned route, and the province of your destination, in high detail, and the so build map, wouldn't be larger than any other map.
So why do I have TomTom then, well because of the price
TomTom costs 169€
Alturion 129€, but Alturion charges 79€/year for support
TomTom has a larger community so easier to find addons like Poicheck
but most importantly TomTom is warez, Alturion I haven't found as warez
:twisted: :twisted:
What do u mean by warez?
warez = free version to 'test' a commercial app.
you wont be suprised that testing will take forever
in other words: it is not officially licensed and thus illegal s/w
alturion v6 is on the newsgroups
maps are updated more freq with altruion theres some nice features but the menus are a bit fiddly also its speed sensor function is good
it automatically calls out if your exceding the speed limit for the particular road your driving on
nice that it works on my laptop as well as xda2
suppose tt3 is good as its easyily used but it needsds more updates for maps
tt4 is out but not tried it yet
xda2 with alturion 6 standard
Hi
I am new to this site, I am a proud owner of a second hand XDA2. I already have alturion std 6 version with a serial gps receiver.I have installed it on my xda2 and when i try to export maps, for some reason it says i dont have active sync on my computer. It is strange because i would'nt have installed alturion on my xda2 without active sync. By the way I have active sync 4.2 on my PC.
Any help will be very much appreciated
cheers
shanks
Alturion has a very good helpdesk. Beter to ask it there.
I think you should stay with Tomtom.
Hi Guys
I wanted to know what GPS app is the best (and easist to install)?

Hi,
I use Route 66 with France's maps. The soft is fast, easy, we could modify pois, but maps are old (2005).
I have tested TomTom, V6, for pda. The soft is good, but hard to use with fakecursor.
Bye.
And excuse my poor english.
For route planning I use Tom Tom Mobile 5.2 with the Tom Tom MKII blue tooth receiver - only because I already had it when I got a WM 2003 phone a couple of years ago, but it works fine with my HTC S710.
For other general GPS stuff I use the freeware program GPS VP - downloaded from http://gpsvp.garminmapsearch.com/ or Google Maps
The Tom Tom receiver is a bit slow in getting a fix, but it can be used with the Navizon Virtual GPS which combines Phone GSM and WiFi triangulation with the GPS signal - so you always get a fix - even indoors!! plus they pay you for collecting the WiFi and phone position data - download from http://my.navizon.com/Webapps/UserAdmin/register.aspx?referral_code=5D575C5D5C5C

Hi guys
thanks for the help..
what about tomtom v6 - will it work?
Tomtom v6 works, look here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=335963
It's not easy to use Tomtom v6 on Vox, it's developped for pda, not for smartphone, and we have to use FakeCursor (cursor on screen, like a touch screen) to use tomtom on Vox.
Bye.
And sorry for my poor english.
