I think the point as that gpspassion takes a very analytical approach to testing. Chipsets tend to excel in certain areas and leave much to be desired in others. What makes gpspassion's (and forum users) testing/info so good is that they tend to look at a variety of applications, such as the use of static navigation. Walking... Driving... Foliage, Urban environments. There is rarely a "beats the pants off" winner. But rather you're able to figure out if a new technology is suited to your use.

Personally, I think the MTK is a big winner because it has brought these BT GPS units down to such a great price. Competition can be a great thing. I'm going to stick with my Sirf3 units for now, but I will definitely tell others that ask me to consider the M5+ and other MTKs.
