Guest Dr_StrangeTrick Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 If you are still using a serial gps (GPS Mouse) and are put off by the prices for a new BlueTooth GPS or you have just upgraded your phone to a C500/MPx 220 and cant use your old gps mouse then this could be for you Cost Effective: Rather than purchasing a new Bluetooth GPS receiver, Bluetooth Car Charger can upgrade an existing mouse GPS into a Bluetooth GPS. When newer and better GPS receivers becomes available, simply replace the mouse GPS rather than the whole unit. Convenience: Instead of worrying about battery life, Bluetooth Car Charger is connected directly to cigarette lighter socket for constant supply of power. Since it doesn't have a battery, the Bluetooth Charger can operate under harsh environments. See here for more details. Check here for other gps mouse models.

Guest quickdrawmx42000 Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 First post! Does the bluetooth only work when this thing is plugged into the car? Sort of a silly question, I suppose, but I wish there was something like this that also ran on battery power. I just got a Garmin etrex for Christmas, and bluetooth is the only way to get it to work with my SMT5600, if I've done my homework thoroughly enough.

Guest Dr_StrangeTrick Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 From what I can see, yes it 'switches on' when its plugged into the car 12v socket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
