  1. PocketPC uses GPXSonar. Get the unlimited wireless internet, you can check for caches on the go.

     

    D!

     

    Oh, never mind.  I just checked the net to see what the IPAQ was.  For what we're going to use this for, the Palms are expensive enough.

    I have both and would recommend an older Palm if the primary use is Geocaching. You can get them cheap (under $100). The battery life of the Palms are much better than the Ipaq's. I like the Ipaqs overall the best because I have SOOO many things I can run on them. Ipaqs are costly though if you fall and break it. (Sorry to bring it up, Flagman :rolleyes: )

     

    I think I have the Palm 5vx. I works great and it is replaceable. If you want an Ipaq for geocaching, buy the 3800 or 3700 models for around $100 from ebay. HP sells an upgrade for the latest pocketpc for $25.00.

     

    Anyway, just make sure you have memory to hold the cache information and their logs. The most relevant piece is knowing what you will use it for.

     

    Good luck!

    i have an Ipaq 1495 that works great for caching and keeping track of dates...it also plays mp3 files...that how we did the podcache in balboa park..had to put in a sd card to hold the file. the ipaq 1495 has 64mb of memory and has a slot for an sd card.

    I apologize for being tardy in this thread. Congrats out to those who well deserved it. Keep on Caching.

  3. Ok folks, I'm flipping a coin. Which is the better one to get - a Palm Tungsten E2 or a Palm Zire 72? Pros? Cons? Is there something better that a person can get locally that is better? For about the same price, of course.

     

    Ease of use

    Able to see in the bright sunlight

    Can do everything that a cacher wants it to do, with room to grow

    Speed (or is there much difference between units?)

    Other...

    neither...get a pocket pc....IPAQ rules....

  4. I used two threads for the ca geocoins. one was development and the second was get your orders in. when i started the ca geocoin...there wasn't a bunch of coins out there and people pre ordering like crazy. currently i have a pdf file posted on the web that i update with the paid up people and i also send out an email to the list

  5. Roger Miller and AC/DC on the same cd? Now there's an interesting combo Steve!  :unsure:

    Eclectic i believe the word is....and how bout the bear went over the mountain? going on a lion hunt? The Lion Sleeps Tonight?

  6. Perhaps it would be worth mentioning that these coins have been selling for $15.00 on ebay. The fools don´t know they can get them for less than $5.00 here :unsure:

    quite interesting isn't it? I have a matching pair of 2004 and 2005 ca geocoins that i plan to put on ebay just for fun....they are below 30 in the numbering.

     

    Updated the paid list...

    KING OF THE ROAD

    Words and Music by Roger Miller

     

    Trailer for sale or rent, rooms to let fifty cents

    No phone, no pool, no pets, I ain't got no cigarettes

    Ah but two hours of pushin' broom buys and eight by twelve four-bit room

    I'm a man of means by no means, king of the road

     

    Third boxcar midnight train, destination Bangor, Maine

    Old worn out suit and shoes, I don't pay no union dues

    I smoke old stogies I have found, short but not too big around

    I'm a man of means by no means, king of the road

     

    I know every engineer on every train

    All the children and all of their names

    And every handout in every town

    And every lock that ain't locked when no-one's around

    I sing...
