I have one. I used it with my Nokie 6682 a couple of times with WayFinder software. It was just fine.

I've used it a lot more with my Nokia E62 - the much bigger screen makes for a lot more satisfying experience, especially with the new Wayfinder 7 update ... 3D view like I first saw with Tom Tom Navigator.

The GPSlim has worked flawlessly for me so far. I shove it onto the dashboard somewhere - usually right next to speedo+rev counter, no need to have it right in the window - and it 'just works'.

I think claimed battery life is around 10 hours or so, and I can believe it. The provided auto power-supply allows you to use it instantly even if you've managed to run the battery completely flat.

The only time I've had any issue is when *totally* surrounded by high-rise buildings, or on a lower level of a multi-level road complex. Both of these were in San Francisco if I remember correctly...
