PSP-290 to laptop?

[vallesedgar]

I wanted to know if there was anyway of connecting the psp-290 gps to a laptops usb and using it with google maps or another map program?

In theory it should be possible with the Chinese extension cable and one mini-b to normal-a connector.

Second thing is, how do you read from the psp-290

[Cloudhunter]

No, not possible. The GPS-290 is a USB HOST device, and computers are also USB HOST devices, leading to incompatibility. You'd be better just buying a computer one.

Thanks Cloudy i forgot that.

But if you disable the usb-host function and let it function as an usb-slave than it should work.
