July 19, 200421 yr Hello,I finally caved and bought an IPAQ 4150...It sure is small and fun.I was wondering if any of you know any freeware avation applications for it . if so can you please link me to where i can download the program ?
July 19, 200421 yr Hi.Search for "PocketFMS", it should be at "pocketfms.com", it's donation ware, or at least it was. This is a moving map type util. I also have a E6b, Excel based program that I wrote, and there are other calculators available. I have a 3955 that I use it with, and have it interfaced to a Garmin Legend. By doing this and using a moving map like Streets and trips (Pocket streets for PDA is part of the package), you can get a street level resolution. With a Lap top and the GPS, you can get taxi ways resolution in some airports, this feature is lost in the PDA because the airports are not as detailed, they just display the icon of an aircraft. If you need more info send me a private EMail. TV
July 20, 200421 yr Bingo! I just bought one too. I also got a bluetooth GPS receiver and the two work very well together. Although the navigation software is for auto use it works quite well in map view when flying and amuses the passengers. I wouldn't like to use it instead of my Garmin though for serious navigation!I've not looked for any specific aviation programs for the 4150 but I have started to convert some of my Excel files to PXL format. Seems to be OK so far (famous last words)..boneshttp://fsaviation.net
