 Best GPS Product !!! April 29, 2007
Only the best in this package...
Hardware: SiRFstarIII
Software: Mobile XT with City Nav. North America NT v8
I can't even imagine a better couple of electronic devices than my MDA (T-Mobile) and Garmin Mobile 10... Bluetooth connection works great, and software runs like a river under the control of Windows mobile...
Voice commands >>> 10's of langusages... Unbelievable software...
I transfered 6 regions to Mini SD card and it only took like 100 MB... I still have 1.9 GB for other data...
A very nice gizmo April 18, 2007
The Mobile 10 works very well with my Treo 650. I am able to fit the East coast states from Maine to Virginia on my 256mb sd card. The price point of GPS devices have gotten low enough so that I don't feel guilty about purchasing a "toy". It would be nice if the Mobile XT software had an option to avoid toll roads if a "good" alternative is available. Never having had a GPS device before you have to learn to trust it or not to use it at all. Indecision can be dangerous. Hearing "make a right on street name" would be better then "make a right". I lent it to my son to visit a college several hours away and he was very happy with it. It gave me peace of mind knowing he would not get lost.
Garmin Mobile 10 and the Motorola Q April 14, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Purchased this unit to use with a Sprint Motorola Q running Windows Mobile 5.0 after my Hyundai Pontus was stolen from my car. The OS on the Q is Q2-BP_C_06.26.00R. It was a slow start getting things running, about 3 days, but once off the ground I was very happy with the Mobile 10. The software that came with the unit was not able to connect the phone to the Mobile 10 (blue tooth problem). This took a phone call to Garmin to solve, but after downloading the latest software from the Garmin web site that problem was solved. The second problem was a setting in the phone that I had changed to get active sync to see the phone. Because of the firewall on my machine, I had to uncheck the "Enable advance network functionality", this option MUST be on for the Mobile 10 to work. The third problem was caused by having a older map set on my machine. It took a second phone call to Garmin to figure out that the software defaulted to the version 7 maps (the last used) and a simple click on a drop down list to change to version 8 maps had me up and running.
Pros: The software uses the phones internet connection to check traffic and displays the problems in colors on the map(you must have a data plan for this). I can receive and make calls while the software is running. So far I have not had a single crash.
Cons: this is more a problem with the phone than the GPS, the Motorola Q can not use the messaging feature of the Garmin software to send your location to others (or maybe I just haven't figured it out yet). The Mobil 10 does not work with Google Maps locate.

For the most part I have been very pleased with the Mobile 10. Great little GPS unit. I could go on and on about aspects of the product that I like a great deal. The one, but significant, issue I've had is that the Garmin software causes me to reset my iPaq with great frequency because of crashes. The positives out weigh the negatives by a considerable margin and I highly recommend this little device.

I use this with my dell axim x51v (which does work perfectly, even though garmin would not say weither it would or not). it is incredibly accurate, I saved my "home" location in a certain spot in my driveway, and as I pull in my driveway (the exact same spot) it says "arriving" every time. My only complaint about this unit is that the software does not say street names, it only says "turn right", wheras other divices I have used actually say "turn right on portland dr."
