Hello!

Just picked up a second IQue to send over to my dad in Germany (I live in the US and love my Ique), because he is just as much a geek as I am ;-)

Now, I got and installed the german maps from the City Select CD, works great. Then I changed the voice files over to german, works great also, the only thing I have left is the OS itself...anyone has any Ideas how to make it German???? Would make it so much easier for my Dad, who is not all that comfortable with english, especially in using a PDA that is new to him???

Thanks for all your help already in advance!

Marcus.

A multi-languge version of the Ique will be out soon. The current version is English only.

I attached Chinese OS. It worked ok. You can shop around any German OS for the palm special for the iMLX cpu. It may be easier to have it in Germary.

I know there is a five-language version in the test phase, but I don't know when it will be officially released.

Thanks for the responses...hopefully this five-language version comes out soon! Maybe I have to call my Garmin rep up and see if they can tell me a timeframe on it.

Thanks again,
Marcus.
