03-01-2002

I tried netstumbler and it worked awesone, can't waite for the Symbol card support. I also have a Garmine GPS 5. How do I interface that so it will log the points? What cable so I need and what software?

You will need to order a serial cable for your PocketPC.

I know that Compaq and HP have serial cables for their PocketPCs.

From what I have read, there is not yet an RS-232 serial cable available that will fit the 3800 series of IPAQs. The page does not mention that they are compatible with this cable (236251-B21). I've been tempted to get a 3850, but I'm going to hang on until I know for sure that I'll be able to hook my eTrex to it.
