  • Do you have an external aerial that clips onto the GPS receiver at all

    If the internal wire is off this still wont work as its wired through it...
  • i wonder how many people are still using these?

    mine is still going strong with the original maps etc.

    what a bargain!!

    i have a newer pda (mda vario II). is there any way of connecting the two to use google maps or ms live search as the maps on the micromaxx are so outdated i sometimes have problems with new housing developments.

    Yup.. Had to resolder it but the only way to get it 100% was to sit it at a slight angle from the PCB and I had to cut a little of the casing away.
