OP, please change the title back to your original topic. Some of us will not be able to find this deal because you changed the title. Your new title (Run for the hills!) is funny but most are still following this deal to see what, if any, action needs to be followed. Thanks.
WayPoint's parent company is closing its doors; and their tech support forums may not last long, so I'd suggest we FW folks start compiling (and saving) links/info on how to use the product as either 1) Windows2003 PDA or 2) GPS-PDA A very useful tips site Updating to Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 from M$
All Lithium-ion batteries tend to wear out in a year or two. This is usually indicated by the fact that the device does not run as long on a battery as it once did. This graceful failure eventually becomes unacceptable for the user. At this point it is time to replace the battery. If you are nearing this point you may want to look at USGlobalSat.com for a replacement. The Mobile Crossing GPS is identified as the BT-308 on the site. The BT-308 mentioned above is the GPS receiver, not the PDA. ********************************************************************************************** SparkLan 80211.b/g WEP, WPA w/TKIP, WPA-PSK w/TKIP CF WiFi card $32.85 + s&h (eBay store link with cheaper S&H here) Xterasys 802.11b WEP CF WiFi card $26.99 + s&h ********************************************************************************************** |
From older posts: Use coupon code TYL-082006 to take another 10% off. Also, the price includes shipping. |
Is this legit? I can't imagine paying $30 for a pocket pc. That sounds too good to be true. |

I wonder if it includes the ENTIRE country or just one region (i.e. MIDWEST) of maps. |
I just ordered one with the car adapter and the 10% coupon code for right around $30 shipped. I figure it will be at least something fun to mess around with. |
I chatted with a CSR and apparently the $60 units include all map regions, and all accessories listed on the $30 page. [4:21:04 PM] me says: so i understand the one item includes the pda, software, etc and the cf card for $60 and the other has no cf gps card for $30. i'm wondering though which maps are included/activated the wp100 is regional. the wp105 is national. [4:23:10 PM] me says: and why isnt the "map activation" and "car mount" options available with the higher priced product, but only the "pda only" for $30? are they included? |
after reading this....might just buy 1 http://www.Amazon.com/dp/B000B3MIL0?smid=A2YLYLTN75J8LR&tag=cnet-ce-20&linkCode=asn |
I can't figure out if this comes with basic PDA software, like the calendar function? I see it uses 2003 and has outlook and explorer but it doesn't say anything else |
Thanks OP, IN 4 1! Got the straight PDA to experiment with. The GPS CF card solution was something I was using years ago. Not worth dealing with a clunky setup like that now when you can get nice integrated GPS unit for <$100. Supposedly this runs straight Windows Mobile 2003, so hopefully I'll be able to get it to talk to ActiveSync. ('TYL...' coupon worked great BTW.) |
Deal is legit, as I got the email too... seems to be an ending clearance deal as the price has dropped. |
Thanks, wfay. wfay said:I chatted with a CSR and apparently the $60 units include all map regions, and all accessories listed on the $30 page. |
Hacking a GPS can't give you a PDA. Without those useful buttons and other feature, it is not that fun to use a hacked GPS. I hacked my mio c320. It's OK, but I am still using my old axim x30. FW10001 said:Thanks, wfay. |
