First off, kudos for a great product presentation thanks to well done packaging and very useful accessories included in the package.

What stands out about this receiver is its intelligent power-conservation features; this receiver will automatically pair with your BT-enabled PDA when it's in range and then automatically go back into sleep mode when the PDA is out-of-range. Freepaq has an extremely extensive review with loads of screenshots for all to enjoy. Find out if they think this unit is worth the investement or not!

In town: very good reception, loss of signal was present when passing in narrow streets lined with tall buildings.

Items like this are the biggest reason I stopped using my standalone GPS.

However,

GPS Technology: NEMERIX GPS Module

Would that be the chipset? I'm looking for a SiRF III chipset or better in my next GPS, which will be a BT unit.
