The best GPS receiver I have seen yet!

Advantages: Tiny, appealling, accurate, powerful and desirable.
Disadvantages: Rubber cover for DC power supply breaks off easily.

...pretty) alternatives. Suddenly, the GlobalSat BT338 popped up in front of me. It looked more like a fold-up mobile phone. I seriously thought that it was all looks, and no function. I was fortunately proven wrong. One quick eBay bid, and a couple of days later, I was holding the GlobalSat BT338. The first thing that struck me was how small, but solid the device felt.

Great GPS receiver

Advantages: light, portable, good reception, accutate
Disadvantages: none

...application and swithched on the Holux receiver and once i had set up the pairing in my phone it was good to go! Reception was excellent and accuracy very good.

I also use it with some Geocaching software for paperless caching - look up Geocaching on google if you want to know what it is? Some ...
