GPS Review: TomTom Navigator 5 Bluetooth Bundle for Treo 650
Here's a nice write up of getting the TomTom Navigator 5 to work on the Palm Treo 650. for a little under $300, you can lturn your Treo into a TomTom powered turn by turn GPS navigator. Now there were some bumps along th eway, and the process took forever because of slow to get activation codes, but the thing was up and running with only a few hitches. This can be summed up with, "The activation process was a complete nightmare and I'm hoping that I'm the exception rather than the rule."
In the end though, "When you're set up, this product turns your Treo 650 into a robust GPS system that provides spot-on navigation and responsive software all in a very small package. While wireless, I used the charger 24x7, but there's no reason you cannot take this GPS walking through the streets of any major city and use the benefits of GPS. The addition of Points of Interest takes the guesswork of finding a restaurant of your liking from the highway or in the middle of a busy city."
This is a very nice size for the GPS receiver and you are able to put the thing just about anywhere you want as long as it has a clear view of the sky. Not a bad little accessory.....
