    Is a Palm VIIx worth it?

    in GPS technology and devices

    Posted

    <_<

     

    Anyway, I have the cradle plugged into what I believe is the serial port on the back of my computer (9-pins with IOIOI next to it), I have the Palm set into the cradle, turn the Palm on, and press the sync button on the bottom, but no luck. Nothing. I did turn my computer off after plugging the cradle into the serial port, and then turned it back on so that it would recognize that something was there, but still nothing. I have the books for this thing, and they mention some software of some sort (which I currently don't have), but the book makes it seem as though that software would just allow me to run the PDA from my desktop. Is there more to it than that? Is this something I should make an effort to get from the guy I bought it from? If he doesn't have it am I up a creek? Is there some way around not having it?

     

    The Palm Desktop Software can be donwloaded here: http://www.palm.com/us/software/desktop/. With it you can upload palm files.

    60csx Freezing Position

    WOW, yet ANOTHER thread about more problems with the 60 'X' series... :)

     

    Was considering one, but not anymore. I don't need to throw away hundreds of dollars on something that just doesn't the way it should. :(

     

    I have a 60CSx and been doing geocaching for about 3 months now. I couldn't be hapier with my GPS.

     

    Remember, the 60CSx is very popular, there are many people using and reporting problems and Garmin has been very good updating the firmware to solve them. In a few more months, the 60CSx will be even more stable.

     

    You will have a better and tested GPS unit than others but that's up to you to decide where to spend your $.

    Req: Portuguese Forum @ Groundspeak.com

    in Website

    Hi to all,

     

    I fully aprove the creation of a portuguese forum at Groundspeak. This way geocachers from all over the world can interact with portuguese geocachers, ask questions, provide sugestions and be informed about geocaching in Portugal.

    60csx - Still A Great Unit

    Nice input. It is also important to give a positive feedback when the problems are solved.

     

    I also have a 60 CSx and had some of the problems described were in the forum but overall I am very satisfied with my GPSr.

     

    And we can see in several post in the forum that many people love their 60 CSx.
