I have an IPAQ 3630 running TOMTOM v2.
The GPS is a haicom 203e ( size of a matchbox ).

The GPS is serial with a ps/2 like plug, the lighter cable has two plugs, one for the IPAQ and a PS/2 like socket for the GPS.

So both GPS and IPAQ are powered from the cig socket, along with GPS IPAQ comms through the cable as well.

All hangs together nicely and works well.

That's the very chap :-)

I also got a usb connector so I could use it with my laptop if I ever needed to.

Yet another vote for the haicom 203E, I use one with TTN2 on a iPAQ and have the serial cable for use with the laptop.

Nice and cheap and does the job.
