Requires some mods to get to work with the Axim.

Here it is the Axim connected to the car

Here's the cable assembly you need to rig if you want it to work. Not a perfect or ideal fix, but for free software and a portable device that takes no time to boot...I'll take it

Default Nice! I have to get off my lazy butt and do the same.
I already have all the necessary components to connect to test out the program. It can come in handy during meets.
