get an iPhone, or a PPC things that are designed to perform.
So dont use it...............

And for Chris's question, it runs on almost ANY GPS thats Windows CE based. I found it interesting since you can expand the functionality of your GPS far beyond what you paid for it.

And as for cluttering up the unit, if some people actually read about it, they would find that most GPS units (non-Linux) ALREADY run Windows CE, and the nav software is just another app running on it. This allows you to run whatever you want, and use it as a GPS when you want it to, like any Windows program. Besides, you can install in either the flash memory OR an SD card, meaning you can use the MioPocket whenever you want or just return it to stock.
