sat nav and origin b2 query
is it possible to use the gps receiver from my origin b2 to run sat nav on a pda? if so how does the pda link to the receiver?
cheers

Apparently it's possible via a cable from the b2 to the pda (at a guess rather than linking the gps receiver directly to the pda)
AFAIR Origin were suppsed to be releasing the cable anytime now but it kept getting delayed when I asked a bit ago

I spoke to Origin and they told me they'll be releasing a cable or something after Christmas. Too long to wait so I bought the Tom Tom bluetooth gps receiver and it is great! No cables req'd as it uses a rechargeable battery. it is small enough to mount behind the rearview mirror.

Glad you've got it sorted 
Looks like the cable is sometime never as it's been dragging on for at least 6 months on my reckoning so I might have to investigate other options (TT Go and b2/solo or do nothing and put up with my RA Classic and ipaq)
