Pairing the Navman 4400 GPS unit with a Mac at bioneural.net
I have an old NAVMAN 4400 GPS unit that I’ve been using with my PocketPC and the NAVMAN SmartST software.
Now I wanted to put it to use with my Apple PowerBook, only to realise that Apples Bluetooth Assistant requires that you pair the device by entering a code – quite difficult WITHOUT a keyboard. If all else fails, FGI, and link #1 yielded the site above.
I had no idea that a “Bluetooth Serial Utility” existed in Mac OS X.
Thanks! Now it’s time to play around. Google Maps has Danish road maps these days
Long live Google.

Glad the info was useful
Note that for OS X users running Tiger, the Bluetooth Serial Utility no longer exists; instead see System Preferences > Bluetooth.

Thanks for the update. I’m still happily using Panther. Even though Spotlight IS nice, my Panther will most likely not become extinct, at least not until Leopard arrives.
