Hello Everyone, just purchased my JasJar.
It's Fantastic, i had a qtek 2020 but this one is on another world.
I have one question: does any1 knows a Wifi Scanner for JasJar??
I tried ministumbler, wififofum and even retina with no luck...
2 question: the jasJar has a mini-Usb connector, can be used as a console port ?? i have a usb-serial converter, is it possible to manage a serial connection over that port?
Thanks in advance,
with many regards

I use wififorum. In toos/device menu set TIACXWLN1.
Me too.
WiFiFoFum works just fine on the JasJar.
First time buyer of GPS unit and I need help choosing the right one. Thanks.
Btw, has to work in the UK.
I wouldn't dare say flawless , but the last 2 times i went to GB i didnt experience any problems with my current GPS receiver which is the
Rikaline Bluetooth GPS receiver 6033
this model is generally 20-30euros more expensive than the standard ones but it uses an advanced chipset to even get fixes in buildings and tunnels and can maintain more connections at once.
Manufacturers Site
Cheap one from www.mobilefun.co.uk
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/8590.htm
£40! and works a treat.
Probably not as good as the Rikaline or the Holux 236 which is by far the best i've tried but for they are nearly double the price
Even uses the same kind of charger as the Wizard so effectively you get a free in-car charger for you PPC thrown in.
I successfully use a generic Nemerix based GPS mouse from adapt. You can find these rather cheap GPS device in many varities (lots of OEM manufacturers) on eBay.
In conjunction with TT5.2 it works like a charm.
Any suggestions for a good light GPS to fasten in the helmet. I have plans to track my routes during mountainbike tours.
GPS...
What a topic...
I have spent some time investigating the options for me...
I am a newbie on the PPC front and I am after my first GPS set up too...
OK everyone points at TomTom as the best option...is this so?
Any feedback will be greatly received and if I do go for it, I will probably go for their bundle...
For those running TTN5 on thier Wizards, please advise the speed and any issues...many thanks...

TomTom is also my #1 for road navigation.
What are the best choices for free-time navigation? Some candidates:
Pathaway, http://www.pathaway.com/pathaway3wm.htm, WM5 compatible?
OziExplorer, http://www.oziexplorer.com/
cant fault the holux 236
Nemerix
Hi,
I am using this GPS mouse (NEMERIX V3.0 Ultra Low Power Chipset). Simple installation, simple use, long battery life, cute size - my favourite!
U can get it e.g. here:

Im using a BT77 Bluetooth GPS. It provides a really great signal even inside, however I have had problems with the wizard, in that I have to drop and then re-partner the device in bluetooth, everytime I want to use it, but Im currently thinking its the MS Bluetooth stack at fault and not the Device, anyone have a similar experience ?
Hi,
I already have the tomtom wired gps receiver which i use with my ipaq 2210. I know the receiver connector wont fit onto my wizard but is there any kind of adapter that will change it from ipaq to wizard (min usb i think).
cheers

Afraid not. Wired receivers will not work on Wizard/K-Jam etc.. full stop. you need to get a BT GPS receiver.
I picked a cheap one up from www.mobilefun.co.uk for £40 and works a treat. 5 fixes even in car glove box
The Tomtom Bt Gps is the easiest one to connect to the wizard, other brands u may need to set comm ports in Tomtom navigator.
So far I tested Holux SIRF3, Tomtom MK2, Leadtek sirf3, all were working fine.
my Tomtom MKIII works perfectly with Wiz.
I'm using a BT880 picked up on ebay (new) for £30.
Works fine with my qtek (imate rom) and tomtom5.
Hi I wanted to know if I can link my laptop to the Trinity via bluetooth and access the Trinity's bluetooth instead of buying a bluetooth GPS device (I'm tight, so I try to squeeze as much functionality out of each device as is possible hehe)
thanks in advance
Yes, you can. You could use the free GPS2Blue or the not so free GPSGate. Just google and you will find the downloads.
Hi,
I was wondering what would be the best alternative solution for GPS for Hermes. So far I have heard that the BT-338 bluetooth solution can work nicely.
Anyone else have found a better solution?
Thanks for the suggestions in advanced.

I use Holux M-1000, works like charm pretty easy to setup. If you not using planning to use Garmin software of course. If you do, by all mean use Garmin reciever. The proxy software is such a hassle
Thanks for the reply.
Does anyone use any other receivers?
I have used 2 different bluetooth GPS receivers - the Palm from TomTom and the one that comes with MS Streets & Trips (with a bluetooth base in lieu of the USB cable to a laptop). Both worked fine using TomTom Navigator 6. There is a bit of a hassle getting them recognized, but once done, they both function well.
GPS on Hermes
Telenav woks extremely well. The receiver is small, connects very easily to the Hermes (I have the ATT 8525 version) and the cost is reasonable.
Follow this thread post #9 onwards.

Works for all WM devices on any internal or external GPS.
Enjoy.
Are you aking for the best alternative for GPS or the best GPS option?
The only alternative I know of is Google Maps 2.0 w/ cell tower based locator.
hi
i tried installing garmin mobile xt and was not aware of the small storage rom avialable to us on snapvue side..
so now im wondering what you guys are using on both the snapvue side and the PC side for gps
and since i have no clue how to transmit gps data (if that is possible) to the windows side so that google earth or some other application can use that..
so be free to elaborate as much as you can
thanks in advance !!!
cheers
For SnapView I use BeeLine gps its really good and small Excelent for basic gps work
franson gps gate with the external btgps III (bluetooth gps receiver), and garmin mobile pc.
I`m using IGO8 PC on XP side with gpsgate (activesync). It`s working perfectly but gps fix takes longer than on other devices that I have.
How do you get the inbuilt GPS on the SnapView side to communicate with the Vista side?
