Zire 72 Universal Connector adapter?

So, which GPS are you trying to re-use? I note that most current units come
with connectors for either type of unit. Have you checked the GPS
manufacturer's website?

There is no adapter. A GPS requires a serial port, and the USB
slave connector doesn't have it. There is one GPS that will
work, sold for the Tungsten E. It comes with a Tungsten E
included (!). The only other alternative is to buy a bluetooth
GPS. Your current GPS is useless with the crippled 72.
