PhilD,

I'm going to try the Pocket PC GPS as well. I have ordered the Navman bluetooth wireless GPS, and a bluetooth SD card for my Dell Axim.

If the combo works OK, I plan to order an external GPS antenna (the Navman has ports for both external antenna and power). At that point, I can mount the GPS bluetooth unit in a hidden location. The Pocket PC should then be able to get its GPS bluetooth signal anywhere in the truck.

I'll probably order a gooseneck mount with an amplified speaker:

This combo will free up my CF slot, so I can have up to a 2GB storage card for maps.

I'll let everyone know how it works out...
