    GPS Receiver For HP Jornada 568

    Hi guys,

    Recently bagged myself a bargain on eBay, but wondered if anyone knows of anywhere I can get hold of a cheap wired GPS receiver for it?

    Or does anyone have one they're looking to get rid of?

    Stu

    Most wired GPS receivers have a PS2 type connector on them (note the most bit), when you buy a GPS the company will provide an adapter cable to fit your PDA. Not all manufacturers provide the adapters for all PDAs. For a review of GPS receivers alook at www.pocketgpsworld.com I have used a couple of diferent receivers and the Rikaline X5 is my favourite wired one, for my own system I use a bluetooth fortuna clipon. The receivers badged as tomtom are normally seen a being a tad arse so are best avoided, although the software is good.

    Ebay is worth looking at for gps gear, as some of the big retailers put cheap stuff on there.

    there are some on ebay new for £45 inc p+p. Search for gps 568 and include description, they are a haicom HI-203E, my parents used one, its ok but can be a tad slow getting and regaining a fix.
