Hello all,

I'll be joining the press soon and my job requires me to move around the klang valley alot. I want a pda with GPS function for me to know where I'm going.

I like the Atom Exec, it's one of those I've been eyeing on since like forever. Now that I could finally own one, I wonder if pairing it with a Bluetooth GPS reciever is a good idea. Or should I just get one of those with a build in like the HTC P3300? Of course, that would be more expensive.

Will there be any complications if I get the Aton Exec and BT GPS reciever for GPS? What are things I should look into when buying the reciever? How much would a reasonably priced one cost?

Please help me out... cry.gif

If you traveling using car power should not be a problem. Buy car charger and using it while navigating. It should solve your power problem.

Oh so basically, besides the battery power problem, there's no other complications? Like performance wise?

Thanks for your feedback! The traveling car charger sounds like a great idea. smile.gif

What software is the best for the maps?
