hopefully someone can help me.

I've been going through loads of entries on this site regarding the xda mini / qtek / mda and some of them say that you need a bluetooth receiver and some don't.

So before I spend any money could someone please tell me what I really need ie wired or bluetooth.

Thanks in advance,

Tim

to honest id go the bluetooth route as if you change the mini for a mini s or one what ever comes out int e next 12 months then i suspect these devices will use a mini usb port to charge the device as yet there are no wired gps recievers the have this capability yet . also a bluetooth gps will enable you to use tomtom for a short time away from the car

The mini series can only use bluetooth.

The spec on Expansys says it has a Mini-USB, so Bluetooth will be your only option.

Actually the TomTom BT receiver came in handy the other day as I was able to park up and get two locations by walking to them so I had them exactly marked. ( Was doing a recce for a trip later in the year. )

May do that for some cameras as I have all the hi-vis kit etc in the car. ( Don't worry, I work with the jam monitoring systems and not speed cameras! :D )

Yeah if your buying reciver sparately get a holux or the new carcomm GPS as they both use mini USB chargers as well. It means your chargers and cables will be the same for both phone and GPS receiver.
