Just brought a PDA/smart phone Orange SPV M3100 - help needed

peterg1965

Just brought an Orange SPV M3100 from Ebay. I reckon it was a bargain, it is new has two mem cards (2Gb and 512Mb) GPS software, bluetooth GPS receiver, desk cradle and car cradle - all for £260. It is just what I needed after suffering with an Nokia N80 for 6 months.

I have a question; how do I access my hotmail account from the phone? I assume it is either via wifi at home or, i assume, some kind of method via WAP/GPRS/EDGE (these things I know nothing about!) Do I need to get some kind of Data package put onto my Orange contract account?

Does anyone know anything about Destination 6 GPS software, can I download fixed traffic camera sites onto it?

Thanks.

I have used SPV phones for a while, apart from the obvious phone functions, mainly for TomTom.

I never really look into gprs/edge etc.

To access my Hotmail and Yahoo accounts, I simply flash up internet explorer exactly the same way you would on a PC and choose hotmail etc from my favorites.

I have no data packages on my simple £25 a month contract, It does cost, but I only really use it to check emails and the odd footy score so I have never had a large bill.

Once you are connected to your PC (activesync via, direct cable wifi etc) you simply copy files onto your storage card the same way you would through Windows Explorer.

Don't know about Destinator 6 but for TomTom it is as easy as copy and paste.
