The software automatically re-calculates your journey in case you veer off course. Plus, the maps have special icons to show points of interest like restaurants, airports or museums. It's a great solution for door-to-door routing or just visiting unfamiliar territory. All you need is a Bluetooth-enabled Pocket PC. The included Bluetooth GPS Receiver allows you to can take advantage of your Pocket PC's Bluetooth capability to wirelessly add GPS positioning technology. If your Pocket PC does not have Bluetooth functionality, it's easy to add with Socket's Bluetooth Connection Kit (CompactFlash card with user-friendly software).Before, adding GPS to a Pocket PC meant using an obtrusive GPS receiver or troubling with messy cables and external antennas - reducing the mobility of your Pocket PC. Besides adding bulk and weight, these solutions also consumed power from your Pocket PC. Plus, you had to assemble the different gadgets every time you used them. Using Bluetooth to wirelessly add GPS eliminates all of these inconveniences. No cables also means you can position the Bluetooth GPS Receiver for optimal satellite reception. Wireless technology lets you keep the Bluetooth GPS Receiver on your dashboard while you use it. This lets you devote your hands to using your Pocket PC or driving your vehicle, instead of juggling devices.
