Treo 650 > 60cs Cable

[+baloo&bd]

Does anyone know where to get a cable like this so I can use the nearest feature of cachemate?

 

I had one for my Snoy Clie, however have not been able to locate one of these yet.

First .... I'm not positive about this. I think the nearest feature of cachemate works off of algorithims referencing the coordinates. We use a Palm and a 60C and have never hooked them together .... but the Treo may be quite different. ImpalaBob

I think there is one available. Try to Google--Treo Garmin Cable.

Try this.

You can use either coords or the GPS. I have the connection for my Sony Clie to the 60CS and have used it since I had my III+.

Try this.

 

Thanks, this is close, and I will file this away if I don't find something else. I would kind of like to find it without the power cable since I would be using this mostly in the field. If i am in the car, the GPS is hooked to the laptop and Nroute.

We are using this Bluetooth/12 V car adaptor with a Garmin 60CSx and Cachemate on a Treo 650:

It works great - while I am using the GPS for navigation my wife can find out which are the nearest caches.

Am i missing something? This is just the power cord, it is not an interface between the GPS and the Treo.

This is a power cord with build-in Bluetooth. It takes the NMEA output from the Garmin GPS and transmits it. The function is the same as "ordinary" GPS-Bluetooth units.

It is still something I can't use in the field, however is soemwhat intriguing. Does Cachemate support this?

So this plugs in to which port on the Garmin?

 

I'd like to try it with a GPS60Cx, and Treo650.

 

Well, I'm editing this since I think this is the right Power cord/Bluetooth adapter:

Edited again: How do you set up the Tre650 to use it with Cachemate?

 

And another edit :-) I just found the GPS button in Cachemate's options. I'm assuming after it's connected via bluetooth, the "Nearest caches" menu will use the GPS location as a reference - yes?
