Have had no problems at all with this receiver. I am using it with my iPAQ 211 Pocket PC & its built-in Bluetooth, also Tom Tom software for navigating. from Amazon.com It doesn't pair through the windows mobile bluetooth manager, but you can manually configure the GPS under google maps for windows mobile. After that, it's great. I leave the receiver turned on in my laptop case and use the phone as the Navigation System. Then I don't need to carry a separate Garmin thing. from Amazon.com 3rd: The design. This is not the most beautiful device in the world, but is nicer than other models. 4th: Most GPS receivers updated and send data position every 1 second (1 Hz), but this device can be tweaked to reach 5 Hz, useful to build detailed maps. I have this one paired with an Atom Life Pocket PC running under Windows Mobile 6 with Garmin Mobile XT v5.00.20 together. from Amazon.com The receiver works fine. It seems to operate about the same as my last receiver (Holux GPSlim 236), which was stolen out of my car at the "full service" car wash. from Amazon.com I'm using this with an iPAQ 211 PDA running Street Atlas 2008 for Pocket PC. I started out setting it on the dashboard, then realized that works anywhere in the car. I now just toss it the center console and it picks up the satellites just fine. from Amazon.com I needed a GPS Receiver for the Nokia n800 I bought last year so I looked around for something that would work. I had loaded the free map program from Maemo, and from what I read on-line, this GPS device would work. from Amazon.com I have several GPS and this is by far the fastest acquisition unit. One day, I drove through the lower deck of the San Francisco Bay Bridge and this was the only unit that still had a signal. The others were: Mio 550 with Sirf3, Belkin GPS connected to a PDA, Navigon 2100 PNA, and my car's built in factory OEM Navigation unit - 2007 Range Rover. Connected to my HTC Touch Pro, this performed so well that I may get another. from Amazon.com This GPS receiver is awesome! It's about the size of a small box of matches and fits easily in my pocket. from Amazon.com I purchased this GPS receiver for my Blackberry Curve since Verizon blocks the internal GPS. I paid $40 for the product and it is an unbelievable bargain. from Amazon.com Red: Satellite. Blinking means it has acquired satellite links. The manual is fairly worthless, but there is another manual which is much better that you can download from Holux. It came with a Free Universal PDA/Smartphone Mount. from Amazon.com
