Ownership verified by DX Nice logger
Posted by chusteczki3 on 8/7/2008
Involvement: Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

Price: starstar
Ease of Use: starstarstarstar
Build Quality: starstarstar
Usefulness: starstarstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstarstar

Pros: - small
- short TTFF
- lightweight
- logger can store over 100000 points (tried +60000)
- can get a fix even in my house, and log my movement around (not fully accurate, but still - quite impressive)
- has support of WAAS/EGNOS
- very small "floating" when static
- software included does the job

Cons: - cannot be used as "GPS-mouse" - you can only download waypoints via USB and charge the unit
- bluetooth has a max range of 3m (practically up to 2m)
- absolutely not waterproof

Other Thoughts: - bit pricey here - it usually costs like 50-55$ (EMS offer is not true - at least none of my friends received it by EMS. We bought these receivers because they were in stock here and EMS goes like 3-4 days usually. Went almost three weeks and by normal airmail. )

Bottomline: If you are looking for small, external, BT capable GPS receiver - this one is what you are looking for. If you need GPS-mouse functionality - skip this one.

Pros: Small
Bluetooth
GPS
Store up to 120,000 waypoints
Hang around your neck.
USB Cable to standard miniUSB 5pin
USB Car Charger compatiable with any other device that can charge from USB

Cons: It took such a long time to get in that I'm unsure if it was even shipped with Free EMS Express.

Other Thoughts: Because this can store points, you can start it going and go for your journey. once you return you can look up on the PC where you have been. (I have not tested this but I do plan to right away)
DX please add a character counter to make the Reviews.

Bottomline: It works.
