Description:

The Pocket GPS Navigator is the perfect navigation solution for Windows Mobile-based Pocket PCs. Included in this kit is the iGPS-360 convertible receiver with a sync-cable connector and car charger which powers the GPS while charging your Pocket PC simultaneously. The iGPS-360 receiver is a small, slim, and highly sensitive GPS receiver, and is convertible to meet your multi-functional navigation needs (i.e. CF, USB, Bluetooth with optional accessories). The iGPS-360 receiver comes with the cables that connect to the sync-port of your Pocket PC. Includes Ostia, Pharos' award-winning navigation software for Windows Mobile-based Pocket PCs and detailed street-level maps (of entire US or Canada). With Ostia installed on your Pocket PC, locating your current position, or finding a destination or point of interest (POI) is fast and simple. Routes can be calculated and viewed. Once you're in your vehicle, simply activate the navigation program and begin traveling; the automated voice-prompts will instruct you when and where to turn. If by chance you go "off route", the automated voice will give an off-route warning. Simply push the "Action" button on your Pocket PC and the system will reroute you to your destination from your current position.

Thanks for your feedback
I bought this product about a month ago for my G-1000 phone and it's pretty-good and I'm still learning how to use the many functions and/or services you can utilize. I have the Ostia version 7.00 and the map version 5.00-which is the program that stores the maps of your choice. Unfortunately they(Pharos) don't have and will not produce any more maps programs that are current. The last upgrades for their maps for this version(5.00),is 2004. So there's no more new maps from 2004 which means no more new streets and highways that are probably being made as of now through-out the U.S.A.
br /All-in-all it's a very good product, at least in my book.
