Dell Bluetooth GPS Feelin' the Love

From BargainPDA:"I was actually rather surprised at the sensitivity of the receiver. For one thing, it was able to consistently maintain a lock while inside the second story of my house. Upon checking the specs, I noticed that it is sensitive to movement as little as 0.1 meter per second, 95% of the time. One tenth of a meter is less than 4 inches. Not a big deal for driving, but if you want to take your GPS out hiking, then such accuracy is nice to have."

From Brighthand:"When I'm driving through a strange area, I'm not fond of taking shortcuts if they involve making a lot of turns. I don't like to have to watch the road and a map at the same time. But with the GPS this shortcut was a breeze. I just followed the spoken directions and had no problems at all. And, best of all, I never had to take my eyes off the road."



It's nice to see more bluetooth GPS units making it onto the market. Personally, I think GPS is one of the best uses of bluetooth; it's very easy to just toss the unit on the dash and forget about it. Since this particular unit looks to have a pretty good battery, you can afford to forget it for several hours. :mrgreen: Who else here is using a bluetooth GPS? What do you think?
