ive been enjoying the holux i ordered...

precise, locks on fast, and battery life is great so far!
i just wish i could put it in the glove box and have it triggered on/off by the ppc, that way i dont have to fumble with turning it on/off manually.

Using the Globalsat BT-338 with my 6700 and my x30 high. Using OCN 5 on both and enjoy it immensely.

I grabbed a QStarZ Q818. It works real well - quickly acquires a fix on startup.

Still looking for some feedback on software tho. I have GoogleMaps, Live Search, and Navizon... I mostly just run Navizon letting it map cell towers and wifi (omg, this eats the battery) as I drive around and just look at the map; something with turn by turn and voice navigation would be nice. Any suggestions?
