Great GPS April 14, 2010
J. Godfrey (Deployed)
This little bluetooth device is wonderful. Works with my ipod touch (jailbroken) and roqyBT program ($11). Also works with google earth (make sure u assign it to a low port number, google only goes up to about 20 or so), and just about any navigation software (Delorne, Windows Streets). A great buy!
Haven't exhausted battery yet April 6, 2010
D. Knapp (Golden, CO United States)
So maybe battery life is horrible, I don't know yet. Otherwise, it does exactly what I want. USB and BT GPS. Manual is printed in 2 point font. No drivers included - have to use the web. Otherwise, nice GPS.
 Works very well June 25, 2008

Holds a charge forever. Grabs signal fast. Holds the signal when stuffed into a backpack or when it falls on the floor of the car and slides under the dash. How's it do that? The switch feels a little cheap, but it hasn't broken. The LED lights are cryptic and require a manual within easy reach, which is why I docked it a star. Works great with my T-Mobile MDA. Very simple to use. Great!
Great Little Unit August 22, 2007

I've used many little bluetooth GPS units before because I develop land surveying equipment. I've also used many survey grade recievers that cost $40K. I know what I am talking about.
This one is by far the best cheap hand-held unit I've used. Battery lasts for ages and the satellite acquisition is really fast compared to other chipsets. I left it sitting outside for a week once, still turned on, and due to the power save mode it still worked when I remembered about it a week later and reconnected. Ran for another 8 hours or so before it finally ran out of juice.
It will even get satellites in a basement under a 2 story house. Of course, the location isn't very accurate, but the fact that it even gets a signal is very impressive.
Size-wise it is smaller than a deck of cards - about the size of a really small flip cell phone. 3 AA batteries together, and one lengthwise across them endwise is the approximate size.
Can't go wrong with this unit. It is standard bluetooth serial port profile (SPP slave) and streams NMEA data the moment you connect. The strings it supports are GGA,GSA,GSV,RMC.
Amazing Receiver February 10, 2007

If you do your research you'll find out that this GPS receiver has by far the most channels (32), one of the most accurate chips (158dBm) and one of the most long lasting batteries (32hrs), but enough about technical details, if you're looking for a BT GPS receiver that will will work with your windows mobile device, don't look any further, this is the product for you.
I couldn't get it to work with Google Maps but that was a google issue so instead I'm using it with Windows Live and it works great!
