Bluetooth SDIO for Axim and GPS?

[DuallyDave]

Hi all, new to this forum and a new Axim owner. I've been in the computer business for quite a while (unix sys admin), but I'm astounded at the power and capabilities of PDAs. I just discovered bluetooth yesterday, and it looks as though bluetooth SDIO will be very useful, but it doesn't look as though they have one for the Axim yet. Looks like Socket might be be the most likely to do this? I'd love to have one of these: http://www.emtac.com/products/bluetooth/datasheet_btgps.html - a wireless GPS receiver, and use a SDIO card to connect to it.

The SD slot on the Axim is SD, not SDIO meaning you can't add peripherals (like a Bluetooth Card) to it, only memory. However you can add a bluetooth card to the CF slot and there are lots of options. You can also get a one piece solution as a CF card GPS does exist also.
