I used a GPS sleeve with my old iPAQ but didn't replace the gps when I bought my H2210. However, I still have CoPilot Live version 4 software.

I'm going on vacation so I need to decide on a replacement ASAP. I want it for driving directions in a rental car.

I like the following features:
- Window mount and cradle
- External antenna
- As few wires and fittings as possible
- Self charging
- Built-in memory
- Loudspeaker
- Prefer not to use card slots for gps receiver

After looking around, I found the Seidio but can't find a local retailer that carries them. They look good on the web but that's all I know.

Do you have any experience with this unit or a similar item?


Thanks,
Mike

Bummer,

No response, so I guess I'll pull the trigger and get this unit then.

Wow,

I lucked out. As it turns out, Dave's site just did a review on a version of the item I found. So' I'm about to place the order.

Thought I should post this just in case someone else is looking for the same type solution as me:
