Does anyone know if you can adapt a HP compaq 2210/2215 to use as a handheld GPS and if so how to do it?

I have connected my Etrex Legend to my ipaq 2210 successfully using a cable. This link also powers both GPA and PDA through a cpmmpn power supply from the car. I may be able to find the web site i got it from . I'll keep you posted.
