I was very disappointed with how long it took for the software to acquire a GPS lock. Even after downloading a "patch" application which is supposed to speed the process up from Pharos' website, it took sometimes about 10 minutes to get a lock. The PDA was plugged in so power was not an issue. from Pricegrabber.com Strengths: The GPS receiver can be used with different mounts to allow for multiple communications types. Bluetooth, CompactFlash, etc. from Pricegrabber.com hi like too reture the Pharos PK041 Pocket GPS Navigator Axim X3SW US Maps Car Charger PDA Holder can you put my money back too my credite card ok from Amazon.com hi like too reture the Pharos PK041 Pocket GPS Navigator Axim X3SW US Maps Car Charger PDA Holder can you put my money back too my credite card ok from Amazon.com I always regreted not getting a navigation system for my car. Well I own a Dell AXIM 30 and saw this Pharos unit, I figured the price was right. The unit is pretty user friendly the only problem is getting lock through the windshield, I got around this by placing the patch antenna between my moonroof and the inner cover (to hold it in place). from Amazon.com I always regreted not getting a navigation system for my car.

Some how just buying the one Dell pushes was not good enough and here some of what I have learned... from Amazon.com A must for a Dell Axim, it makes purchase of one worthwhile, despite the alternate units (cell phone/pda combos) available. A real kick to have in the car, but with Axim, you need to have pretty good hearing to discern the verbal directions. from Amazon.com hi like too reture the Pharos PK041 Pocket GPS Navigator Axim X3SW US Maps Car Charger PDA Holder can you put my money back too my credite card ok from Amazon.com hi like too reture the Pharos PK041 Pocket GPS Navigator Axim X3SW US Maps Car Charger PDA Holder can you put my money back too my credite card ok from Amazon.com
