Is it possible to connect a wired GPS receiver to a Jam?
I have a BR305 which I rewired to suit an XDA using wiring diagrams from this site. The USB lead to the Jam would supply a pair of power cables (+v and - v) and a pair of data cables. If this was possible where would i get the connection info? I know what the wires do that go into the current xda type plug.
Thanks
Doug
Sorry--This subject has already been raised (But not finalised?)

I have the same USB receiver so keep me updated if you find a way to connect it.. I already mailed the dutch distributer of the GS305 but haven't received an answer so far..
Ok will do.

The connector is a standard mini-usb port:
it has only four pins +V USB+ USB- GND.
It does not carry serial port signals.
Could you use wireless instead?
V
yup, you can sync via wireless or over bluetooth....
Bluetooth might be a problem if he's got no usb. But he might be able to get a usb pcmciacard or bluetooth or wireless card.
V
You could add USB ports to your laptop pretty cheaply.
eg http://www.dabs.com/productview.aspx?Quicklinx=3V5S is £14 and has firewire too. (by the looks of it, the description is somewhat lacking!)

Is it the same as the XDA IIi (alpine)
Can I use my existing GPRS if I change to the mini?
Don't know what's on the Alpine but the Magician has a standard mini-usb connector.
thanks
Hi
I have the following problem: I think the connector of my xda II is broken . It sometimes charges when I put it on the docking or plug it but no activesync connection is possible.
Anyone an idea on how to fix that ?
best regards
these connectors are generaly poor imho
both my charger cables are hit and miss unless i put my case under the cable
making an angel then it usualy charge
my himalaya cradle is much much worse stoped using it alltogether
my old wallaby cradle is the best connection i got
