Hey Guys, Greetings from Norway.


I have a Tungsten T3 which I only use for in-car navigation with TomTom 6, and a generic Bluetooth GPS reciever. I modified the car adapter for the GPS unit, and an old Palm Vx cradle (my company stopped using them, so I have loads) so they both get power when I turn the ignition. This system works almost flawlesly, except for one thing. I would like the Tungsten to automaticly start when ever it gets power, and turn of when the power turns off. The "automatic power off after 30 seconds" feature in the Palm OS seems to be disabled by the TomTom program, so I would either need a third-party software for power control, or make some kind og electronic system for this.

So my questions are:
1. Does anyone know about a Palm software for this kind of power control
2. Can any of the pins on the cradle connector control power on/off

Thanks in advance,
Bjorn A
