    May have to narrow it down. I need it for a palm drive?

    They only seem to work with treo's.

    I'm expecting delivery of a Navicore Bluetooth receiver in the next few days. Its very small and is the latest Navicore model.

    Decent price IMO from www.mobile-fun.co.uk - €62.48 delivered (€14.55 P&P, which is expensive, but is 2-3 day delivery.)

    http://www.mobile-fun.com/eu/product/12398.htm

    RRP most places seems to be c.€80 + P&P

    EDIT: I'm using/going to use mine with a Tungsten E2. If its Bluetooth enabled, you shouldn't have any problems.

    I've read problems the some BT devices dont work with certain devices. The one you posted there doest list the T2 on its list of devices it works with. Dont want to be buying something like this only to have to send it back

    Sorry guys, I've been on holidays and forgot to get back on this.

    In short...works perfectly with the E2 and with the 770.

    I used TomTom on the Palm and brought it to Belgium to navigate to Paris. Worked perfectly. No issues other than initial satellite pickup can take a few minutes.

    With the 770, its connecting and working fine, but I can't seem to get the maps working on MaemoMapper.

    Looking at getting the Navicore software instead.

    Uninstall the version you have and check these two posts.
