Migration from ipaq 3870 to Orange SPV M600

My current setup:
- TomTom Navigator 5
- ipaq 3870
- Globalsat BR355 (PS/2 Serial connection)

I have just got myself an Orange SPV M600 which I would like to migrate TomTom to. This runs Windows Mobile 5 and has a mini-usb connector.

Does anyone know if I can connect the BR355 to my M600? I know I could just go out and buy a bluetooth gps device, but I have already got 2 x BR355's (2 cars) and want to be sure I cannot reuse them before I spend more money. Back in 2004, a review was done of a bluetooth PS/2 car-charging cable but I cannot find it for sale anywhere now.

Thanks

Smartphones cannot use serial accessories. You need to buy a Bluetooth receiver, and you will also need to use TomTom Mobile (TomTom Navigator will not work on the M600)

This is an easy one to confuse though as Orange do the SPVc600 (Smart Phone) and SPVm600 (which is a Pocket PC device), both run WM2005 according to the Orange site, but as Mullet correctly points out the actual device in question here is the Pocket PC based device - Mike
