Have I Made Right Choice ?

[Rovernut]

After some weeks of deliberation and of reading this forum I have finally made my choice of Navigation kit .

Here goes:

Ipaq 4150 - (in lieu of 2210 for Bluetooth facility)

Fortuna Type CF GPS

CoPilot Live PPC4 preloaded on 128meg CF card (like contactability facility) Is this a better solution to Tom Tom Navigator3

Brodit dash vent mount (not sure whether to go for passive or active. I must be able to move from car to car. My pref is to also keep cables to a minimum.


Cables, not sure what additional cables I will need, help appreciated here.

Total cost if purchased from Navman Tech (great reviews on this forum) about £600 .

Before I take the final plunge and order it I would appreciate any comments/observations regarding compatibility .

I don't think your combination will work. The 4150 only has a SD slot, so you will not be able to use the Fortuna CF. Neither will the Copilot CF Quickstart fit, but I believe you could get the software supplied installed on a SD card so that shouldn't be an issue. I have a 4150, and the wifi works really well. However it does restrict you to a Bluetooth or wired GPS, I think you will find.

Afterthought: I should have made clear that both the 2210 and 4150 have Bluetooth built in. The 4150 has wifi as well. So the trade is between the built in wifi (4150) and CF slot (2210).
