I have a Garmin GPS 18 USB Laptop Receiver which is a GPS receiver with a standard USB adapter on it.

Has anyone tried to use a female to male mini adapter and plug this into the mogul.

I have the Garmin Software for the mogul, but would this work and be able to be picked up by the software.

Also what would you suggest for drivers

Adapters don't matter if the device won't work that way.

These phones are designed to be a USB Client Device. Not a USB Host Device.

Snarglies: /noun/ from the remulak vocabulary meaning balls ;-) The reason I say this is because there is on this forum a ROM and radio update that will enable GPS (internal) and REV-A (faster EVDO) features of your unit.
