+jerrytcher Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Wanna trade my stuff for your entry-level GPS? With Christmas around the corner (and the wife saying “clean out that garage”) I had the idea of a possible trade. 1) I would like an entry-level (or better…) GPSr (or 2) for the kids, 2) Santa might be bringing you a newer, bigger, better GPSr for Christmas (and you have no idea what to do with the old one), AND 3) I have a bunch of stuff in my garage you might be interested in! I have the following items available - if you see one or more that you are interested in working a trade for, let me know: • Windows 98 Second Edition (OEM) CD-ROM (new) • MS Office 2000 Small Business Edition (OEM) CD-ROM (new) • Dell Color Printer 720 (new) • 17” Color computer monitor (used, but still works well!) • 13” color TV (used, but still works well!) • “The Sims” CD-ROM game – like new • Traction Cables for auto – I can check if your tire size is listed • Bicycle carrier for 2 bikes – has straps to attached to back/trunk of car • Flat screen TV wall mount – didn’t fit our TV, had to get another • Folding walker (aluminum?) – like new Respond here, or email me at normandie304-trade@yahoo.com Jerry Southern California / Inland Empire Quote Link to comment
+jerrytcher Posted December 16, 2005 Author Share Posted December 16, 2005 Along with the other trade items, I also have the following available for trade. Would rather trade for a GPSr than have to mess with eBay. - Delphi XM MyFi (XM Radio) portable receiver with home and auto kit + antenna headphones (new in box) see http://www.xmradio.com/myfi/index.jsp for details - Screen for Dell Inspiron 1000 notebook Quote Link to comment
+jerrytcher Posted December 16, 2005 Author Share Posted December 16, 2005 sorry BadAndy - didn't get an email I adjusted filter (i think) try again? Quote Link to comment
+jerrytcher Posted December 17, 2005 Author Share Posted December 17, 2005 Looks like the XM Radio is off the market - traded with BadAndy for a Sportrak map. Thanks. Quote Link to comment
+jerrytcher Posted December 18, 2005 Author Share Posted December 18, 2005 All other items listed in previous posts are still available for trade. Any extra GPS's I get can be used for family members and/or with students at school. Any of the listed items can be combined with others to help make a trade happen! The Win98 CD and Office2000 CD are worth $75-100 each on eBay - though I'd rather get them to a fellow geocacher that needs them in trade for a working GPSr Quote Link to comment
+commish41 Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 How much is the Windows 98 SE? Is it an upgrade or Full version? Commish41 Quote Link to comment
+jerrytcher Posted December 20, 2005 Author Share Posted December 20, 2005 The Wins98SE is the full version. Looking at eBay, they seem to go anywhere from $50 to $80+. I'd trade it for a used yellow eTrex, or even combine the Win98 with something else to cover the GPS unit. Quote Link to comment
+commish41 Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Thanks for the information I have contacted the North Pole and hope my hint got through to Mrs. Clause about a new laptop. commish41 Quote Link to comment

Got an older GPSr you want to trade for my items? I'd love to use them for my own children as well as the kids at school. I am happy to combine items to cover your GPS. Thanks for looking!

+jerrytcher Posted April 13, 2006 Author Share Posted April 13, 2006 A basic eTrex or Magellan would be great Or, I can combine several items to trade for a GPS with more features. Quote Link to comment
+jerrytcher Posted April 22, 2006 Author Share Posted April 22, 2006 One last try ... Quote Link to comment
+jerrytcher Posted April 23, 2006 Author Share Posted April 23, 2006 A basic eTrex or Magellan would be great Or, I can combine several items to trade for a GPS with more features. I also now have a Tungsten C available for trade. This is just the PDA itself - when I got it, I did not receive the cradle, cables, CD, or even stylus. I use a Tungsten C and love it. The built-in Wi-Fi is great and I like the mini keyboard at the bottom of the unit. You can see specs at: http://www.palm.com/us/products/handhelds/tungsten-c/ Thanks! Quote Link to comment
+PrimaryCache Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Sent you a PM Jerry. Quote Link to comment
+PrimaryCache Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 I spent a bit of time on the Palm site after looking at the TungC. Thanks for not responding Jerry, it gave me the nudge I needed.... I decided to get the Zire 72 (PalmOne has a factory outlet!). I'm so excited about this. If anyone is interested in a Visor Deluxe (I've got 2, black and the clear/blue) or a Visor Platinum, just let me know. They'll be up on Ebay in a couple days but I'll give any cachers first go at an offer before they're listed. I also have a Magellan Companion GPS module to go along with one of them.

I saw your PM yesterday - I was thinking about it, but I think I'd rather have an actual GPS unit (for kids) as opposed to a PDA with GPS attachment. Thanks for the offer and I hope you enjoy your Zire 72. Our school principals have then and seem to like them. One reason I wanted the Tungsten C was the built in Wi-Fi - you have to add a component to the Zire to get Wi-Fi. Good luck on your sale also! Jerry Quote Link to comment
+PrimaryCache Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 (edited) You can't beat built-in wifi, our Toughbooks have it and logging in from site to site is a breeze. I almost bought a Tung-E, I was all set to go until I noticed it didn't mention supporting wifi or bluetooth and the E's processor was half the speed of the Zire. I liked the Tung-C's features but I don't know if I could work with the typepad on the front. I bought a TypeNGo (by Fellowes) for the Visors and ended up shelving it, the little round key buttons were just too awkward for my Fred Flintstone fingers. I use a Palm infrared keyboard now, at least with that I'm able to avoid punching 4 letters at once. I spend a lot of time on Ebay, if I see any GPS deals too good to pass up I'll shoot you a PM. I'll keep in mind it's for students, what age group are we talking about here? Best of luck with the educating, it's a fine hobby for them to learn by. I wish I had educators who had taken that kind of learning approach, making learning fun is definitely the key to reaching younger minds and leaving a lasting impression.

Would love to get them to do a little GPSing around the school! Quote Link to comment
+jerrytcher Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 I still have the Palm TUNGSTEN C that I'd love to trade for a nice GPS - would have to have WAAS and PC connectivity. Quote Link to comment
