+Haffy Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 I am looking for a good source for cables so I can connect my Garmin Vista to my PalmZire 71 and then into the lighter socket of my car. I have heard they are pretty expensive. Has anyone got any good fairly inexpensive sources? Thanks haffy6 Quote Link to comment
+Timpat Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 ... Has anyone got any good fairly inexpensive sources? Sure do. I go to GPSGeek for any cabling I have needed for my Garmin GPS units. This would be a first place to look and see if they what you need. Merry Christmas! Quote Link to comment
+Haffy Posted December 25, 2004 Author Share Posted December 25, 2004 Just went to GPSgeek and they didn't have any cables that I could see that hook up to a Palm and my Vista. Thanks anyway. Quote Link to comment
+OB Jets Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 Try here, though I suspect you will have to custom order it... Quote Link to comment
+Goodguys Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Try Gomadic.com. They have an amazing modular system that connects a wide variety of devices. I just bought a cable to connect my Geko and HP4700 PDA. Very slick! Quote Link to comment
+JeremyA Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 (edited) You can get a cable that will do the Vista to Zire 71 connection here - there is no lighter-socket connection on this one though. JeremyA Edited December 27, 2004 by JeremyA Quote Link to comment
+Learned Gerbil Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 PC-mobile do one and I can recommend them for service and quality. Quote Link to comment
+NightPilot Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 PC-Mobile is good, as is pfranc.com. Both have the cables you're looking for. Quote Link to comment
+Texas Shadow Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 You can also find some cables at thesupplynet.com Quote Link to comment
+johnnyspud Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 I've bought two cables for an e-trex at Blue Hills Innovations. They were about 1/2 the price of Garmin's cable and shipping was included. Got the cables in a couple of days and they work flawlessly. http://www.blue-hills-innovations.com/blmstr.htm They may have something for your application. Quote Link to comment
