Pharos CF GPS and Ostia Software

Recommended Posts

I am running an iPAQ 3765 with 1GB microdrive and a Pharos CF GPS with their Ostia software. I have had incredible success with this combination with one minor exception. I started with Ostia version 4.01 and everything was fine until I started inputting waypoints. I entered the coordinates and the waypoint name and it pulled it up just fine. I did this for several waypoints then went back to select one of them and discovered that my waypoint list consisted of 3 waypoints, not the 8 I had just input. Contacted Pharos and they sent me version 5 of their software but it didn't help either. I am supposed to be able to enter 99 waypoints. Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks in advance,

Wolfhound

Where does one get a copy of version 5.xx? Their site mentions the version in its FAQ but doesn't provide users any option to update to the latest version. Not even as a one-time update option.

 

Does each owner have to complain to get service?

 

The features of their moving map product are extremely lacking, when compared to the robust and powerful features that are contained in the OS of dedicated handheld GPSr units like the Garmin GPS-V or the SPIII.

And to think that I once had trouble finding own *** with both hands...
