Where does one find that peculiar (DIN?) connector on the bottom of the
IPAQ? I haven't found one yet that I can purchase somewhere. I use the
controlvision version gps on the ipaq and want to try a few things. BTW,
I hear there are 2 versions of the connector depending on the version of
IPAQ you own (I have a 3650 and use a Garmin gps antenna/receiver
prewired to the ipaq).

Marc, the early versions were 12 pin, the later one is 22 pin.
All the dirt you need on the various connections is at:

The connector is the same as the one on my Canon ELF digital camera so they are out there. I would look at finding an accessory cable. The other thing that looks promising is buying the CF card backpack sleeve. I am too dumb to figure out the stuff for the 100 pin connector but that seems to have all the I/O for the CF cards, the PCMCIA cards and even audio etc. That would be an easy way to break in to the IPAQ and also have the benefit of a cradle you can mount to something. The CF sleeve is cheap too compared to the PCMCIA sleeve. Partially because it does not have batteries and does not require a cable to charge the batteries like the PCMCIA one. Figure it all out for the rest of us.
Good luck, Chrissi
