Nokia 6260 gps receiver required

I'm a complete newbie to all this, so forgive my ignorance. Embarassed

My mate has tom tom on his pda and told me that I could get likewise for my phone. So of I went and have managed to source a new rs-mmc card and tom tom mobile 5, but am stuck on what gps receiver to buy.

I've been to ebay but am worried about compatability, which leads me to my main questions.

Will any BT receiver work?
If not what should I look for?

I've seen lots of BT receivers on ebay etc... but only a handful claim compatibility with my phone.

E.G.

Doesn't state its compatible with the 6260, but others looking exactly the same say they are.... very confused here....

I went to tom tom support site and there doesn't appear to be a list of compatible receivers.
Only a list of compatible phones, and yes mine is listed.

Currently I have

Nokia 6260
TT mobile 5
512MB Kingston RS-MMC

So I still need advice on which gps receiver to get.

Ive been looking on ebay at

Qstarz
No name stuff with BT-77
Globalsat BT338 with the latest firmware

All help and advice appreciated
