hi,

i have been searching this forum and have decided that the htc 3300 is the one for me,

however, is there any other options i should consider?

i basically want a usable sat nav and phone in one, internal gps and tomtom maps, ideally europe and uk but uk would do

is this the right choice?

thanks for any help Smile

It's an excellent PDA, has a thumb trackball which works really well, has a good GPS and works quite well as a phone. Nuff said Smile

It's a popular choice and a few of the team have it and love it.

I will second that - a great choice for an all in one device, I have the HTC P3300 and the T-Mobile version which doesn't come with WiFi, no great loss though with the Web-n-Walk package for Internet access via GRPS.

You will find some comments and a few accessories listed/ pictured in This thread which details my thoughts on the Artemis, I didn't realise that I had been using the Artemis for ten months though! - Mike

Mike, is WiFi on the T-Mobile device not present or just disabled in some way?

The T-Mobile MDA Compact - III has no WiFi hardware fitted at all so it is not a case of re-enabling it as the chipset is missing - I guess that’s T-Mobiles way of enticing users to use the Web-n-Walk package.

The True HTC P3300 Artemis does have WiFi as does the other re-badged variant from O2 the XDA - Orbit, if your mobile phone contract is about to expire then take a look at any of these products as on contract you can get a great device for no outlay depending upon tariff - Mike

tomtom menu is better but copilot has some better features including the ability to set road speeds and multipule waypoints as well as better desktop software
