+coast2coast2coast Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 (edited) My sister just gave me a Dell Axim x51 pda... It kinda scares me... I have no idea how to work it as it is not in the Palm os...any hints? Can I still do paperless caching on it? Can I run all my windows based programs on it. As in GSAK? is there a widows version of cachemate? I won't be getting a GPS card for it. I am real happy with my Garmin. I just want to use it for paperless caching. So many questions...lol If anyone is using a windows PC based PDA for caching, I would really like to hear from you. Let me know how you use your PC PDA to cache.

No, GSAK will not run on a PPC. Maybe someday... Quote Link to comment
+StarBrand Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 I like GPXSonar for the PPC - and it is free. No you can't run all your windows software - only stuff made for the PPC OS. Be sure to get a protextive case of some kind for feild use. Not good if it slips and falls in the mud..... Quote Link to comment
+coast2coast2coast Posted September 2, 2006 Author Share Posted September 2, 2006 Thanx for the tips... Ok I managed to get online with the PDA... and My homepage is geocaching.com...its sort of tough to navagate through the page 'cause the screen is small... any ideas? C2C2C Quote Link to comment
+darus67 Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 check out www.aximsite.com I learned TONS of good stuff there when I got my Axim X50 last year. I use GPXsonar for paperless caching. Quote Link to comment
