i think i read on a GPS site that you can, but you'll need to prove that. i looked in this forum - in the beginners section
http://www.pocketgps.co.uk/modules.php?name=Forums
some good info here.

The Pin 300 has a flip up antenna and there is a small rubber bung on that for an external antenna to be plugged into it. The Pin doesn't come with the external antenna, however they appear to be a standard fitmant as I know the external antenna which comes with the Mio 168 fits into the bluetooth gps unit I have.

I would assume a sepreate GPS unit could also be used...but it would need to be through the expansion slot.

Roger, thanks for original post, but i am spending a lot on this money saving forum.
I just couldnt decide between the 610 and the pin 300
+ points
both cheap
pin 300 - is mobile
pin 300 can be used for other things
both are sat navs
-points
read some bad reviews of pin 300
610 has no battery so isnt mobile
not a lot of functions
610 is entry level

so i thought buy cheap buy twice and opted for the 510
reasons

has a battery so i can take on my mountain bike
nice big screen
nearer the top of the range in its day
more maps
way cheaper than it used to be
easier to put in POI's

Hope i've done the right thing, just got to ask al lthe family for cash for xmas now to pay for it.
Thanks again rog. i'm a budding techie type now

Mine arrived today - icn510 - not bad, i only ordered it yesterday. just over 24 hours.
It a top blokes toy - highly recommended so far - like it says on the tin - works straight out of the box.

blow the overdraft - get one today!!!
