If you have a GPS device running Windows CE, you might be frustrated by the limitations of the manufacturer's software. You might want to run other software, such as music, movies, appointments, or other navigation apps, but you cannot exit the default software. This means that your device is "locked" and you cannot use it for anything else. However, there is a way to unlock your device and use it for far more than the manufacturer intended. This way is called MioPocket 4.0 Release 68 11.
MioPocket 4.0 Release 68 11 is an "unlock" for GPS devices running Windows CE. It is a frontend from which you can launch the navigation software that came with your device or that you purchase separately. It also comes with just about everything that you might want: three media players, four e-book readers, multiple dictionaries, dozens of games, two image viewers, two paint programs, MS Office document viewers, text editors, handwritten note-taking apps, four general GPS plotting/mapping apps, three different appointments/tasks apps, internet apps, registry editors, task managers/switchers, file managers, a contacts app, a calculator, a unit converter, an alarm clock and more (all free/shareware). See the Readme file for a full list. MioPocket 4.0 Release 68 11 is the most-packed and most-fully-featured unlock for PNAs available and is free and legal to use, as it consists 100% of freely-distributable content.
Technically, MioPocket 4.0 Release 68 11 should run on any Windows CE-based device. Despite the name (a nod to the Mio brand), it has evolved to become flexible and not hard-coded to any particular brand or configuration. Every device is slightly different, though, and due to the great many brands and configurations that are out there, the ease of installation and the number of apps and features that actually work will vary. Most major Windows CE-based GPS brands, such as Mio, Magellan, Navigon, Navman, Sanyo and Asus (as well as many other lesser brands) have installation instructions in MioPocket's Readme file. For brands that MioPocket does not include specific instructions for, there are also some general instructions for SD-free installation on just about any device, but it's always a good idea to check around online (especially in the gpspassion.com forums) to see if and how others have done it. Note that TomTom and Garmin devices are Linux-based and, hence, MioPocket (which is Windows CE-based) cannot run on them.
