BT GPS
 
Ok,
Does anyone have a recomendation for a good yet fairly inexpensive BlueTooth GPS receiver? I ordered my PPC-6700 today and will use it for navigation. The only receivers I have experience with are Deluo, but I am wondering if there is a better brand out there.

I purchased this one
http://www.buygpsnow.com/i-blue-edit...n-off-679.aspx
about 3 weeks ago

They were out of stock at the time, and it took a few weeks to get, but they did keep me notified of stock and upgraded my shipping. I only mention that because I notice they are out of stock again.

I really like it, nice long battery life, it wakes up automatically when my BT is enabled, has the same miniUSB charging accessories as the ppc6700 (I didn't own a car charger and the GPS comes with one so that was a big plus for me)

It's highly sensitive, but also my first GPS so I can't compare it to any others personally.

Good Luck!

I also bought my from this place. I got the 1st edition of the i-blue and it paired nicely with my 6700.

I have two GlobalSat's - a usb for my tablet pc and a bt338 for my 6700 - they are amazingly quick - and I've had zero problems in the 18 months or so I've had them. - sheureka

I have the BT TomTom device and I absolutely LOVE it. Its a bit bigger than a jumbo pack of gum and lasts 10 hours on one charge. Loading the tomtom software on the phone was a snap and it works wonderfully even on the aku 3.3 build

as of right now, i am waiting to see if Deluo offeres a PDA adapter to hook my current GPS Receiver up ($20 vs $70+ for a new one). if they don't, i'll break down and buy a bluetooth one.

how is this working out for you? i am looking into getting a bt gps receiver and this looks like a good price.

It's old technology - the newer ones can track more satellites for a more accurate read and are much, much faster at getting a fix. I use an older ups gps receiver on my laptop and the difference is very noticeable. - sheureka
