Ownership verified by DX Works on Navigon 2100

Involvement: Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

Price: starstarstarstar
Ease of Use: starstarstarstarstar
Build Quality: starstarstarstarstar
Usefulness: starstarstarstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstarstarstar

Pros: Plugs right into the Navigon with a nice tight snap!
Boosted my satellite reception from 3-4 to 6 instantly.
really long cord!
magnetic base to stick onto the roof of your car!


Cons: Really long cord! I have it in side so i have to roll the cord up on the twist tie and leave like 2 feet of open cord for reception boosting.


Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: Works well, this will help you in the city as signals get bounced around. this fits well onto my navigon gps you should get it too!

Pros: - Magnetic base allows placing even outside of the car.
- Really long wire!
- Worked well with my holux gpslim 236 bluetooth gps device!!!!
- The problem of gps devices is obvious when navigating throughout tall buildingsso I did the obvious: i parked between two tal buildings and without the antenna go a fix to 3-4 sats!!! I plugged it in and voila back to 8-9!!


Cons: It wouldn't plug in very tightly with my holux device and comes off very easily
Don't know what will hapen if I place it on the exterior of the car during high speeds, maybe it will fall off.


Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: Buy it for navigating in the city, no nedd for it when in open grounds!!!

Pros: It worked flawlessly with my Navigon 2100. I took a chance on the unit because of its low price point. The cable end snapped in nice and tightly to my GPS. Now I can use my GPS in inconvenient places. The Cord is nice and long and the GPS antenna is built sturdy. Unbelievable price.


Cons: The GPS box was crushed on arrival due to poor packaging. But what do expect with free shipping?


Other Thoughts: I have no other thoughts. My wife thinks for me.


Bottomline: Great value, great build quality, and fast shipping. ebay is almost obsolete thanks to DX!


Ownership verified by DX Worth the price!

Pros: 1) I managed to increase the number of satellites detected when connecting it to my pocketpc.
2) The GPS signal is stronger compared to without using the device.
3) Just plug and play for my Asus P535.
4) Magnetic base on the device, allow it to be placed outside car.


Cons: Wire is a bit too long and car isn't that big!


Other Thoughts: Haven't tried placing the device on the outside of the car and driving fast. Wonder if it would fall off.


Bottomline: If you have tinted glass on your ride and poor GPS signal, try it out! Or if you do a lot of city driving, it is worth a try.
