Ever since I got my PDA2k I have no way of using GPS as a stand along hand held unit, as it only has 1x SD slot and no CF slot. (I used to use a CF GPS card). In my car I have a wired GPS received. I could see no point of getting a BT one, as I had to plug my PDA in to charge anyway, a BT receiver just meant I had to make sure I kept that charged too.

I am now looking at a BT receiver for if I go walking and need GPS. eBay has some relatively cheap looking ones, does anyone have experience of them? Here are the links -

We haven't tested the first one yet (we had a device with the same body but with a Sony chipset)

The second and third are the same device (Xaiox Wonde-X, BT 77 etc) with Nemerix chipset. The claim that the transparent body is improving performance is actually quite hilarious.

As you mentioned, those are cheap receivers. You get what you pay for.
