Review: Pocket Map Navigator, R4

Posted by JakeRich on Oct 04, 2009 | Comments

Five years ago, in January of 2004, I wrote a review of Pocket Map Navigator, R3, for Aximsite.com. That review can still be found at MobilitySite.com, if you are interested. I liked the software and loved the interface it presented, but had the one criticism that it used TeleAtlas Maps, which were, in my area, less accurate than other databases. Right after that review, Space Machine disappeared from the PDA arena entirely...

i-gotU GPS GT-120 GPS Travel Logger by Mobile Action Technology, Ltd Sometimes all you want for GPS is to record where you have been and then later retrieve that data. You might also like to tag your digital photos to that GPS data so you can see where you took the pictures you have for reference later. The i-gotU GT-120 GPS Travel Logger does all of that that. And it does it pretty well. Although technically the device... 

Review – OnCourse Navigator 8

Posted by JakeRich on Oct 29, 2008 | Comments

A couple of years ago I reviewed OCN6 and gave it a pretty good rating. Now the folks at OnCourse Navigator have updated the software and maps, and the good news is that a good system is now even better. OCN8 has again raised the bar for routing and mapping applications. Testing Environment I tested OCN8 with a Dell Axim X51v with Lenny’s L11 ROM of WM6.1 and with an ETEN Glofiish X610 also running WM6.1. With...

Review – SyncMate Expert Edition

Posted by JakeRich on Sep 22, 2008 | Comments

I have recently moved from Windows XP to a new Intel iMac running Leopard (OS X). The one thing that was a challenge in the move was that I didn’t have access to ActiveSync to keep my calendar, mail, contacts, etc. synchronized. I could use Boot Camp, Parallels or VMWare to boot XP on the Mac, but those solutions are a real pain to open every time something changed in my PIM data. But then came SyncMate by Eltima... 

HP iPAQ 210 – 1st Impressions and Info

Posted by JakeRich on Mar 17, 2008 | Comments

My trusty three year old Axim X50v was getting a bit long in the tooth and new software was beginning to show up for WM5 and 6 but not for WM 2003, so I started looking for a replacement. I wanted a true PDA, not a converged device, and I wanted it to have both CF and SD slots. I also wanted a VGA display because I had been spoiled by the wonderful screen on the X50v. My search ended up with the iPaq HP 210. After a... 

Review : HP iPAQ 310 Travel Companion

Posted by JakeRich on Feb 06, 2008 | Comments

Developer/Vendor: Hewlett Packard (Hewlett Packard)Price: $449.99 (MSRP) Rating (3 out of 5): I watched Chris unbox the HP 310 Travel Companion here. I’m not going to add a lot of screenshots of the system in this review, for two reasons: 1) it doesn’t have the ability to take screenshots natively and you cannot install any third party software to do so, and 2) it doesn’t follow any standard for connecting to...
