    This one doesn't have that. However it needs to accept an input so you could say connect a digital camera to it or in our case it is for data logging.

    According to the specs for your device it has Bluetooth wireless link capability. You may be able to get some sort of bluetooth adaptor that will plug into your data device ( assuming it doesn't already have Bluetooth.)

    Yes it has bluetooth. However I couldn't find any sort of device that you could plug the USB into and send it via bluetooth to the PDA.

    Would have been cool though

    There are bluetooth print servers that *might* do the job. Assuming it's just data logging I can;t see the difference. Printer connections are 2-way these days so the BT server should be able to handle it.

    but there would be Oz vendors as well. Another something to power, though.

    The data cable from the PDA is USB.

    Can you use one of these adaptors to connect to the data device cable: http://www.amabilidade2002.com/computer34.htm

    I don't think so Ron but I did wonder if they existed. It would be a very cheap way out of the problem.

    I managed to talk to someone from the company that makes the device we are connecting and they said they use the CF card USB adapter.
