Hi, I have a serial GPS (Garmin) that I want to use in the car with my Ipaq 3875. Can I use the cradle without power to connect the serial cable? The GPS gets power from the car.

Thanks,
BR Per-Arne, stockholm

You can use the cradle with serial cable without power.
But you need a null modem adapter in between to connect both serial cables.

A simpler solution is to get a "serial interface" for the Ipaq which can be found here:

Aha, thanks. I think I have an old adapter from the dark modem ages Smile
