Hi guys,

I've got an HP iPaq 5450, and I've installed Pocket Streets and Trips 2005.
My OS is Pocket PC 2002. I have the ipaq talking via bluetooth with a
Pharos 360 GPS (came with S&T 2005), but Pocket Streets only gives me a COM
port option when connecting to a GPS receiver.. how can I get it to look to
bluetooth? Do I need an update from PocketPC 2002?

thanks

-Warren

You're bluetooth settings have to incorporate selecting a service with
your device. In this case, you would have a serial service (i.e. com
port) associated with your bluetooth gps. This is the case with any
bluetooth device.

My Axim uses COM7 to let my Belkin BT GPS receiver comunicate with it.
Scour the web and you will likely find another iPaq user who has gone
through the setup. It took me a couple of days to get the whole thing
working, but now it's all good.
