Best USB GPS Mouse

Hi All,

I'm looking to get a GPS mouse for my Laptop for use on a boat. I'm planning to use it with Marine Mapping software.

I've had a look in the comparison DB and there seem to be a few good contenders. I'm just wondering if anyone has a personal recommendation??

Bit of background

1) The latop doesn't have bluetooth, so that's out.
2) I assume USB is best so I don't need as seperate power source
3) I have a Royaltech Saphire for the HP2210 and am very impressed, but I want a second unit for the boat.
4) I don't want to run the laptop off the boat GPS as I want to move it around.
5) I'm assuming CF GPS would not be so good below deck (I could put the mouse by the window)

Thanks in advance for the advice.

Rgds

I would recommend to get a USB BlueTooth stick. Those are dirt cheap (30 USD) and then you can use any BT device on your laptop, including BT GPS.
