Which GPS system for Dell X30

#1 (**permalink**) 20-07-2004, 08:33 PM

I have just bought a Dell Axim X30 and would like to use it for in-car GPS. I don't know where to start. The Navman 4410 Bluetooth sounds good (about £210). In addition to this i think i need a car charger for the Axim and a car mount - the Seidio G2500 sounds good, with speaker and charger (about £50). Do I need anything else?

Any thoughts on the suitability of this for the Axim X30 or any suggestions for a better outfit?

Thanks in advance.

Just make sure you get the X30 with Bluetooth as there are a couple of models. Currently Seidio dont list the X30 as compatible with the G2500 as per http://www.seidio.com/company/Product/Navigation.htm but I have confirmed with DELL that it is the same form factor and connector type.

Thanks Charlie. It is the Bluetooth version I have. Seidio on-line store list the G2500 as X3/X30 compatible so I'm happy with that. Would you recommend the Navman 4410 or is there a better option? The reasons I thought of this is that it has good battery life and comes with some European maps.

Those are the benefits I would have pointed out to you. Good luck.
