I've got the pocket pc IPAC 3950 and wondered if anyone has any experience with the GPS they have that is supposed to fit with this?

Hey puttn, Start here:


Pocket pc gps Advrider links

I have a bluetooth Gps receiver and copilot v.4 for my dell axim. Great for the regular streets, but not so good off-road. Mostly the mapping software.

Maptech has software that allow you to use different maps with a GPS and a Pocket PC.

GARMIN has some interesting new products for Pocket PC, but the software compatibility is limited.


IMHO, unless you really like having one product(Pocket PC) to do multiple things and are good at incorporating new software and hardware, I would buy a specific GPS for motorcycle duty. Hope this helps

Another good option is OziExplorer mapping software.
