XDA I Accessory compatabilty w/ i-mate

[scottyjchef]

Hi all-

I have the T-Mobile PPCPE and would love to upgrade to the i-mate (XDAII) and have various accessories namely TeleType GPS, chargers, etc. Are the serial port plugs/pins the same? What about the CF port on the new backpack? Is it an IO port? I know The i-mate has SDIO. Sorry if this is a redundant post. I searched and didn't find anything. Thanks! :lol:

Your gps will work ok, chargers will work ok, only problem is with some usb sync/chargers which will discharge the xda2. I know nothing of the backpack. I would be interested to know if your Arkon mount causes brutal rf breakthrough when the xda or xda2 is being used with it? I find it unusable with the inbuilt speaker on the mount.
