December 05, 2006
This little beauty turned up about 2 weeks ago and i must say Iam really chuffed with it! I was looking for something that would charge my ipod and sony erricson phone on the move as I am barely at home or near a mains socket! The power monkey fits the bill perfectly and works really well. i was amazed how long its lasts before having to re-charge it and it comes with every adpater under the sun! You can even charge it via USB! Point to note: it says on the box that and the ipod USB lead (the lead that comes with the ipod) is required to charge an ipod but i used an adapter included in the box that looks like one and it works perfectly! Powertraveler who make the Powermonkey were very helpfull when i contacted them about there product and were ... Read More:

Garmin PC interface cable (RS232 serial port connector) - not applicable to Geko 101

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Power- Data Cables and Cradles

February 24, 2005
I had problems with my cable but in all honesty wasn't sure if it was this half (GPS TO SERIAL PORT) of the cable or the other half of the cable (USB TO SERIAL PORT) that was at fault.

Downloading was hit and miss, sometimes it would work, other times it said it couldn't find the GPS. It even slipped out of its connection at the GPS end on several occasions.

Wiggling the two halfs of the serial connectors together seemed to fix the problem each time the message appeared 'unable to find GPS', but I soon became very annoyed with this and decided to send both halves back.

In the end I settled for a one piece cable (not available on this site) which works perfectly and was cheaper too.

Belkin Tunecast 2 Fm Adapter Black F/ iPod Pda Cd

There are loads of products like this now, but a year or so ago this was one of the few available. So I bought one. Lasted a day or two until a police car overtook me on the motorway and there was a loud bang. Thankfully no damage to the iPod but the Tunecast never worked again. No idea why. So I bought another one. What I've found is that sometimes it works really well and other times it doesn't work well at all. Have tried lots of different fixes... Being the only person in the car seems to help (again, no idea why) as does having the iPod on my lap. Even when it's working, though, I generally have to keep tuning to different frequencies because Radio 2 repeatedly elbows my tunes out of the way. Frustrating. One day I'll buy a car stereo that ...

This is a nice little gadget for when your mobile runs out on you. It's dead easy to use and does pretty much what it says on the tin.

Garmin PC Cable (Forerunner 201 & Foretrex 201)

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Power- Data Cables and Cradles

February 24, 2005
It may not work on other devices, but I have a cable apparently identical to the one in the picture which works fine on the Foretrex 101. As far as I know the 101 and the 201 have exactly the same jack socket.

I had to return this charger as it was not compatible with my Tom Tom one V2.
At the time of purchase there was no indication of this in the product description.

PDA / Mobile windscreen & vent mount holder cradle

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Power- Data Cables and Cradles
from: Discount Satellite Navigation ltd


It's a good job there were two ways to fix the holder to your car, the clips to fix to the dashboard vents broke the first time I used them, they looked flimsy and indeed they were! The suction pad works great though, especially if you rest the holder on the top of the dashboard.

The adjustable holder means I can use my phone or Sat Nav which is handy!

Garmin PC interface cable (RS232 serial port connector)

from: Garmin

There are 2 or more Garmin PC interface cables. The descriptions are unclear about what one is for what. This one is Garmin part 010-10141-00 and is the wrong plug for the eTrex which requires part 010-10206-00 . Only the fine print in the full description states this.
