Dave’s Ipaq – DeLorme Earthmate — A GPS Solution Designed From The Ground Up! @ Dave’s iPAQ

Form — Function — Fantastic!

You want a GPS that will function with your Bluetooth enabled iPAQ and a non-bluetooth laptop. There are a variety of choices out there, so what GPS device do you get? DeLorme has designed a device that has form, function and is utterly fantastic!

The new Earthmate GPS Receiver coupled with DeLorme’s Bluetooth Wireless Earthmate GPS PowerPack gives the iPAQ user the ability to use the Bluetooth capability of their device as well as the ability to use their non-bluetooth laptop with a USB cable. DeLorme’s Earthmate works so well that you might even decide to add a Bluetooth adapter to your laptop.

I was really impressed when I opened the package from Delorme. It is hard to believe that so much can be done with a device that is so small. About the size of a pocket watch and twice as thick, this device has the ability to guide you flawlessly wherever you want to go. If you choose to go wireless, the Bluetooth PowerPack can provide power to the GPS for use with your Pocket PC. What is really neat about the PowerPack is that two sources, a rechargeable battery or 4 AAA batteries can power it while you are on the road. This is a great feature if you are going to be away for several days without the ability to recharge your PowerPack. You just have to slip in 4 AAA batteries and you are good to go. DeLorme really gave some thought into providing multiple power sources…you always have a backup (as long as you keep a box of AAA batteries handy)!

Attaching the GPS unit to the PowerPack is quick and easy. They do have a different way of attaching it but it is designed so the GPS can’t mistakenly fall off. It is a very slick unit. An on/off switch, AC/DC power connection and the USB connection are all located in an easily accessible location in the front of the PowerPack. It is a well thought out design making it very easy for the user to get connected.

Dave’s Ipaq – 6 Shooter Showdown: Poker on eleven wireless carriers @ Dave’s iPAQ

6 Shooter Showdown: Poker invites you to keep your guns handy while you sharpen your poker game in this Western-themed setting. Anyone can deal the cards but can you pull a fast one on your opponents? Are your eyes sharp enough to catch them at the same game? Depending on your style of play, your gunplay may improve faster than your poker skills. Specialize in the raw power of the rifle or the blazing speed of the unexpected derringer. Don’t bother playing 6 Shooter Showdown: Poker if you don’t have a gun to defend yourself.

Get your 6-shooter loaded-and-ready, choose between Texas Hold ’em and Five Card Draw with additional variations such as Wild Cards or Low Spade. Prove yourself by earning enough money in the Casino, then raise the stakes by taking a seat in the Saloon where cheating is possible. If you think someone’s cheating on you, draw your gun and accuse them. Choose between the rifle, derringer, or 6-shooter—each with its own strengths. Enjoy a great new take on the massively popular card game set in an intricate, gritty new world. This is the first of many 6 Shooter Showdown games set in this mythical corner of the wild west.

“This is our finest original work so far,” said John Greiner, president of Hudson Entertainment. “Our parent company Hudson Soft is famous for Bomberman and many classic games. Now we have produced a title that raises the bar on card games. For pure fun and superb graphics, it can’t be beat.”

Critics have also praised 6 Shooter Showdown: Poker: “Probably the most creative entry we’ve seen in the genre,” said Steve Palley, GameSpot Mobile. “It has more variety and personality than most mobile games in any category.”

“6 Shooter Showdown: Poker really nails the atmosphere of the Wild West,” said Levi Buchanan, IGN Wireless. “The fact that the game coincides with not only poker’s hot streak but the successful second season of ‘Deadwood’ is some kind of marketing genius.”

Developed by Spidermonk Entertainment, the game is available today on Alltel, BellSouth Ecuador, Midwest Wireless, nTelos, Telecomunicaciones Movilnet, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless, Verizon Wireless Dominican Republic, Verizon Wireless Puerto Rico, VIVO, and Western Wireless with many more carriers including Nextel, Rogers Wireless, Sprint, and Telus currently preparing to launch as well.
