I have a 2495 and I brought a OnCoarse Bluetooth GPS with MS Streets and Trips software. I am having trouble with the PPC. The OnCoarse GPS software finds and picks up the GPS signal but the MS Streets wont pick up the GPS. It says that I need to have them on the same com port but I can't figure it out. Can anybody help me here. Thanks in advance for all your help in this matter, Thatsit/Bill.........

Weel Streets and trips sucks unless your useing MICROSOFTs gpsr with it. I had to call Microsoft on some questions with mine but had no luck so I went with Delorme and have had NO problems.

But, note that Delorme does not yet have a PPC product for WM 5.0, and if you are using Delorme products, you have to buy one for the PC and one for the PPC. I'm not fond of MS S&T, but you can buy S&T 2006 and get the PPC add-on with the PC product. You are correct about MS liking its proprietary GPS.
