 Best GPS Bluetooth on the Market May 21, 2007

Very Impressed - The GPSlim is very effective, acquiring over 12 satelites where my other GPS units only see 4-5. Works even when in my daytimer, pocket or backseat of my vehicle. Excellent Battery Life, and easyest Bluetooth GPS to connect to my PDA or Laptop. VERY PLEASED AND HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Sweet little thing April 20, 2007
Like everyone else said it's great. I use this device with my TOmTOm software. It's really powerful that I can leave it in my pocket and forget about it. At first you need clear line of sight when doing a cold start but after that, I can leave in my pocket and I get full bars in reception.
UPDATE
It just failed on me when I needed it the most. Blue light comes on but does not sync with sats. I even checked the PCB for burnouts and shorted the battery to erase settings and restore to factory. I think leaving it in the car when the temps were high caused the downfall. I am not even going to bother TRYING with warranty replacement. I will just do it right and get a good model. Might get Globalsat.

I had this unit for almost a year working perfectly. Loved it. Then one day the bluetooth just stopped working. It will not connect and the blue light does not come on. Definitely appears that somehow the bluetooth stopped working for some reason.
Holux has no support number and they have not returned any of my emails to tech support asking for help, after several months of trying to reach them. I am finally giving up. I would not buy this unit, especially now reading how many people are having similar issues. I like the look of the Holux 240, but the support from Holux is disgusting.

Like other reviewers I've had 2 units as a result of warranty returns. The units work for a while and then the Bluetooth begins to fail to connect on power up. If you have multiple bluetooth receivers it will fail with all of them. The built-in diagnostic light for Bluetooth is simply inaccurate.
A wonderful addition to my Blackberry Pearl March 9, 2007
This was super easy to connect with Bluetooth and does a great job at acquiring GPS signals. It's a wonderful way to turn my phone into an occasional GPS device. I use this in conjunction with the TeleNav service.
