  Microsoft Pocket Streets works fine with PalmOne GPS Unit on PPC-6700

Installed Microsoft Pocket Streets on the PPC-6700, and it works fine with the PalmOne branded Bluetooth GPS unit that I purchased in 2004. After creating a new Bluetooth outgoing port (com4), and pairing the devices, the correct location was shown on the map. I have a stand alone Garmin unit for the car, so I do not need a full fledged GPS/Navigation system. I wanted a unit that I could use while walking around the different neighborhoods of Boston/Cambridge. Since I always have the PPC-6700 with me, it was the natural choice for my GPS needs while walking. With the GPS connectivity, I can see the name of the street I am on which is particularly useful when the street signs are missing.

I was a Palm OS champion for years, but switched to the Windows Mobile platform in 2005. My experiences using my Windows Mobile devices, and other electronic devices will be detailed in this blog. The posts reflect what I like, and do not like about a device, or application. Your needs, and opinion may be different.
