norkep 0 Posted June 13, 2004 Cheers Matt, The main problem you'll find with using the PDA as a Sat Nav is the volume, you need to have low noise around in order to clearly hear the voice directions, you'll also get visual directions, so no problem there. The good thing about the Palm Tungsten T3 is it's quick, it uses the same processer (XScale) as a few others but you'll find this is a bit quicker, I've got the XDA II and the Palm matches this for speed. Hope this helps BR Paul Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aido 45 Posted June 13, 2004 Mat, there is some software forthe Palm here: http://www.globalpositioningsystems.co.uk/...41294146edfb237 Don't know how it compares to the stuff that runs on PocketPC but guess they can't be that different. Notice theres a version of TomTom for the Palm but it doesn't seem to be the full Navigator version... Like Paul says the problem with my iPaq 5450 is that the volume output is ******* and it whispers at you... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whitebeam 0 Posted June 13, 2004 There's a lot of good information on the Pocket GPS site, including a review of TomTom Palm on a T3. I've bought from PDAMods and Total PDA and not had any problems - check the 'Retailers to buy from or avoid' forum at PocketGps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
