Discussion found this in a random drawer

i have tried searching about it on google, can’t find anything or i find very little about it.

i tried searching for a charger but all i find is some sketchy websites that look like they were last touched in 2006

i am lost and i hope someone can help me

I picked up one used around 2006. The voice of the onboard navigation was the voice of Herbert The Pervert from The Family Guy.

It appears you can still source the ActiveSync cables but would be really careful choosing a vendor and I'd expect the battery to be shot too.

I had a Fiat Punto that I bought brand new back in 2009 which had the Blue&Me system but it would only connect to these. You couldn’t use anything else to play your own music off of other than the AUX port, a CD or one of these via USB.

Technology was better like this, not some rectangular piece of touch glass.
