Actually, I would have thought to keep the PPC out of the water! Better yet, don't bring it into the bathroom; you probably will have more important things to think about in there anyway!

I hope you enjoy your new toy!
I have nevwr found a need for GPS in the head - generally pretty much one dimensional.

I had a pocket PC gps in my S before:




I used (and still do on my CarPC) iGuidance software which works on PC and pocket PC. It is around $100 and well worth it. I had the pocket PC mounted to a vent style mount.

that looks like my setup but it sits much lower with the seidio mount which covers the hvac(annoying).

i really dont use my gps that often anymore. if i had to do it again i would just get one of those small tom tom for the windshield for neatness.

cool deal!

well, i've got it all setup and running on both my PPC-phone and the Axim X51v. so far it's doing very good, and i find it quite easy to use... initially the GPS unit was reading all kinds of whacko readings (weird altitudes, miles off location, etc.) even with 4-5 satellites, but a pulled battery reset fixed it up quite nicely.

now, i need to get some sort of mount. i'd prefer to do something temporary like a suction cup windshield mount, since it (the mount and BT-359) will get a lot of car to car transfer, and i'll only use it in the S a few times a year for trips.

any suggestions?

i have a bullet cam suction cup mount that i'd like to reuse, but don't have to necessarily.
