Guest JIMSTDI Posted September 24, 2003 Report Posted September 24, 2003 hi guys anyone fitted a pda mount in there galaxy,im on my 3rd mount and i thinks its the best so far as the bracket fits to the os vent,in between the vent and the dash trim,and its at good eye level liked to know if anyone else has fitted a pda mount to... cheersjames :angry: Quote
iainkirk Posted September 26, 2003 Report Posted September 26, 2003 I've got mine on a windscreen suction mount, on the right hand side of the windscreen. Mount has a long bendable arm and a magnetic fitting for the PDA. Works a treat. I'm running a Viewsonic PocketPC with TomTom Navigator II, GPS and TrafCam software. Satnav for Quote
Ivor_E_Tower Posted September 26, 2003 Report Posted September 26, 2003 Anyone got the latest Garmin thing that's currently being advertised? Supposed to be fully portable and moveable from car to car. Is it any good and how much is it? I take it that the GPS sensor is integral with the unit. Quote
Guest JIMSTDI Posted September 26, 2003 Report Posted September 26, 2003 ive used the suction mount to,but the teef of the mount kept working looseso i bought a pro clip from handnav found it a lot betterhandnavs site then i found that the pro-clip was to far away from my looking view when drivingso i bought a pda mount bracket from dashmount.co.uk slots in between the o/s vent and the dash,and its at eye level works a treat just wish they done a clip for the road pilot rather than the current onewhich is the suction mount all the best james Quote
Guest JIMSTDI Posted September 26, 2003 Report Posted September 26, 2003 hi iain have you updated any of your poi,or added any of your owngot loads of sites for poi,if u want them pm me all the best james Quote
Ivor_E_Tower Posted September 27, 2003 Report Posted September 27, 2003 I checked the Garmin website and the colour thingy I was looking at costs aboutUSD1600, and has to be hard-wired into the car - not portable as it needs a speed sensor input :lol: Ah well, as mainly do local trips that's another gadget that will have to wait for a while....

iainkirk Posted September 30, 2003 Report Posted September 30, 2003 James, got plenty of POI websites. My windscreen mount has a self adhesive plate which sticks onto the back of the PocketPC, which magnetises it to the arm of the mount. Works very well. Got my setup here: http://www.globalpositioningsystems.co.uk/...?product_id=515 Ordered at 2.55pm, arrived at 8am next day! Quote
Guest JIMSTDI Posted September 30, 2003 Report Posted September 30, 2003 cheers iain will check that link out ive done a lot of my own poi`s from pubs to clubs,french,american resturants etc... done over 6 months worth,my database is very big now all the best james Quote
