Hi
I have a Yakumo Delta 300 PDA (Mitac Mio 168) and would like to know if there is any way that I can receive traffic updates when using CoPilot 7?
I am not sure how the technolgy works therefore I am not sure what I am looking for. I was told that if the Pocket PC had Bluetooth (which it doesn't), then I could receive the info. via my mobile phone, but I do not understand how this would work. I know how Bluetooth works but not sure how the phone would pick up the info. and then know to send it to the Pocket PC. Can anyone explain this to me please?

The phone uses its GPRS connection for internet access, it is this that can locate the data server and download the traffic information, this is then sent from the phone to the PDA via the Bluetooth connection (which you don't have) - Mike
