|
|
I have had my HP 2210 for about 4 years - just gathering dust. Is this still viable to use? Or if not can I install other satnav software instead of tomtom? I also have a wired gps reciever in the car (can this still be used?) Its not been used for that long that the battery drained and wiped off the tomtom software (and can I find the installation disks??)
Any help would be appreciated. |

Hi rs10,
to the forum!
The HP h2210 is still a very good PDA for SatNav. If you used the Spite backup software then you should be able to use TomTom Navigator again. A wire GPS receiver should be OK.
I use a BT GPS receiver and data/software on the CF Card. I use the following software on my h2210:
TomTom Navigator 6
McGuider (SD card)
Speed Sentry

Still got mine and use it occasionally. I settles on a CF slot GPS and data on SD card, works fine with TTN6 and Memory-Map. _________________ Darren Griffin |

Thanks for the information - to clarify though can I still use the wired gps receiver with tomtom 6? or would I need an early version instead? |

You can still use wired receivers. _________________ Darren Griffin |

i still use a 2210 with a realtek sapphire wired gps
As the device is getting on a bit now, the tom tom maps are getting a little out of date on it, whats the latest maps that will still work on the aging 2210? |

Assuming that you're using TomTom Navigator 6, then the latest maps avaiable for you to use are:
Great Britain and the Republic of Ireland v6.75 (£29.95)
Map of Western Europe v6.75 (£39.95)
Information obtained from TomTom, here.
