[doc] Re: OT - SAT Navigation

["Simon Shackell" <dcsa-cisaw2a6@xxxxxxxxxx>]

John,

I use TomTom in my pda and there are no montly fees, except for 
TomTom traffic which updates traffic information in realtime via 
GPRS/mobile phone.

TomTom in itself is a mapping program like Autoroute except that it 
is geared around Pocket PC's. TomTom GO AFAIK is the same program 
used in a bespoke unit that accepts SD cards with the maps installed 
on them.

I have a IPAQ4150 plus a Bluetooth TomTom receiver and a fixed 
Parrot CK3300 bluetooth handsfree set which has a seperate bluetooth 
GPS output. I use the the TomTom receiver for roaming around or when 
I'm in a different car.

All in all, you don't have to pay to use the GPS signals - thanks US 
Dept of Defence - and I'd recommend an IPAQ over TomTom Go anyday as 
you can do an awful lot more with a Pocket PC and I'm highly biased 
anyway :)

Simon
