ALDI Medion 95000 - Couple of questions...

[marcusfox]

Got one of these on Thursday last, have a few questions.

1 - What is the largest size SD/MMC card that can be used with this?

2 - Is it possible to use Bluetooth (add on device) with this unit?

3 - How does one go about installing software on this?

4 - Is there a better mapping software that provides more detail for the Republic of Ireland?

5 - What is the original brand, I don't seem to get anything like it on the Medion homepage?

Thanks,

Marcus

To augment Darren's answer to point 2 - add-on Bluetooth cards have always been problematic on Pocket PCs. Many didn't work when their owners upgraded from Pocket PC 2002 to Pocket PC 2003. HP never supported their official iPAQ Bluetooth upgrade pack under Pocket PC 2003.

We now have Pocket PC 2003 Second Edition on some devices, and as the market for add-on Bluetooth cards has to be shrinking all the time, I can't see manufacturers bothering to continue to support existing cards. Most if not all of the Pocket PC Bluetooth cards were CompactFlash, not SDIO anyway. Those machines with CompactFlash slots that are available these days tend to be higher end machines that usually have Bluetooth anyway.


There's now a wide variety of Pocket PCs with built in Bluetooth (which is why there's such a small market for add-on Bluetooth products). If you want Bluetooth on your Pocket PC, it's best to buy a machine with Bluetooth included. I realise this probably isn't what you want to hear when you've just bought a machine, though.
