cable (serial) GPS should be just fine. When the CF Backpack comes out you will also be able to use CF GPS receivers.
As for the BlueTooth - I am pretty sure O2 and the other providers will force the manufacturer of the XDA2/MDA2 or whatever else it is called to adjust the ROM and add the Serial Port Profile to the Bluetooth stack. Patience... _________________ Lutz

I am using a Fortuna Clip-On Bluetooth receiver with my XDA II, with TT 2 software with the Ver 2.09 update. It works perfectly without problems.
If you do not use the TT software use the patch from TOWA available at http://bluetooth.i-networx.de, it works fine!
