Re; GPS, anyone?

[Steve Borgstrom]

I use Google maps, almost exclusively. I have a Treo SmartPhone 650  
that is a cell phone, Palm PDA and Web browser all in one. I could  
hook up a GPS receiver, but haven't seen the need yet. I tune aurally  
only, so only use the PDA for an A if I've left my A fork at the last  
tuning, an occurrence that is more frequent than I'd like.  
(technology can't fix everything <grin>)

I suspect you can add a third party GPS unit to the Dell Pocket PC,  
but don't know the particulars. Do you have an ETD on the Dell?
