Default Navigator for Pocket PC questions

Ordered what I thought was a complete kit from Dabs. Turns out to not include the GPS receiver.

I have a Dell Axim X3.
Have received Tomtom Navigator for Pocket PC
Have received Tomtom car kit for Dell Axim X3.

My questions are:

1) I can't find reference to the receiver on this or Dab's site. Will buy it from here if I can find it.

2) Does the receiver plug into the side of the mount ? Telephone type socket ?

3) Whilst trying to find out about the receiver, I notice that Navigator 5 is coming out soon. How soon ? It it much better ? Am I wasting my money on an older verion ? Is there a reasonably priced upgrade ?

4) Should I be looking for the Tom Tom origninal receiver or are there better/cheaper/more accurate models from other manufacturers ? Are these compatiable with Tom Tom ?

5) I also have a laptop. Does the Tom Tom software for Pocket PC also work on the laptop (receiver compatiability asside).

Many thanks in advance.

Yours,
Frustrated person with only half his new toy !

Welcome to our forums.
1) We don't sell it seperatley. Try www.tomtom.com .
2) Yes it does.
3) Should be out by the end of this month, It should be better in that it includes the full UK postcode search. I wouldn't say you were wasting your money as in my opinion TT3 is still a great product, upgrade details will be posted on www.tomtom.com as soon as their released.
4) Personally I'd get a TomTom receiver as it'll save you having to get adapters etc to get someone else receiver working. Other receivers are compatible with the relevant adapter.
5) No.
