Globalsat BT-338 SirfStar 3, with Toshiba e800/830 setup ?

[stoker1]

I can't seem to get the COM port setup properly. The PDA has allocated Com port 6, but the bottom of bluetooth setup says not connected, however the receiver has been discovered. There is a program that came with it called SPPModem. Does anyone know this program. It asks me to select a ComPort, and I select Comport 6, just the same as the PDA allocated to me, however it does not seem to stick, therefore I can't find GPS in the GPSinfo program either. I really need help.Worked at it all day, and still not been helped to the full extent possible by GPsnow,even though they did finally help me on the whole registration process. The problem is that they have support only by Email. Thanks to anyone that may have done a setup with Toshiba PDA, especially using that ConfigFree.

I have a Asus mypal A620BT and have the same problems with GPSinfo. I can't get GPSinfo to communicate with my BT-338.
I have TomTom3 installed and there I have no problem with getting it to work.
But not with GPSinfo.

Sounds like the TomTom Bluetooth stack steal.. Have a look at the TomTom board for answers about how to get around this.
