Globalsat BT-359 - GPS receiver module

Cheapest Globalsat BT-359 - GPS receiver module


I am using this reciever with an IPAQ 111 Handheld PC.

The receiver quickly acquires a fix of GPS satellites "in view."

My aim in buying BT-359 and the IPAQ was to get a GPS experience like units sold everywhere (in various price ranges), but to also have the many capabilities of a handheld PC. A smartphone was an alternative to this set up, but would have cost an extra 0 per year.

The experience you will have with any GPS receiver and its usefullness to you will depend on the software it interfaces with. I spent a lot of time searching for handheld PC GPS software (my wife will say the same). Bought one and was disappointed that it required routing on a PC to ensure required maps were loaded to create a continuous route. Performance was poor and routes were shown in 2D.

A mapping software I've been very happy with is CoPilot Live 8. This software "found" my GPS receiver automatically without having first to "pair" the device with my IPAQ. This software, with this hardware, provides what I wanted in the first place, a GPS reciever that can create a route from my house in MD to the San Diego (CA) Zoo (done just as an experiment) and that will provide spoken turn by turn directions (US man or UK woman) while displaying the route in 3D.

The BT-359 performs flawlessly and is compact. The price of this rather incredible technology is very low as well. I recommend this hardware.

Cheapest HQRP 01070800001 2 Lithium-Ion / Li-Ion Battery for Garmin GPSMAP 378? GPS Replacement plus HQRP Universal Screen Protector


Got the battery pretty quick. Charged it up and works like a charm. Best part was that it is waaayyyyyy cheaper than the Garmin branded battery. When I initially installed the battery on my GPS, it wouldn't lock into place. I worked it a little and it locked into place. Good to go!

Garmin StreetPilot c550 Portable Navigator (0100052200)

Cheapest Garmin StreetPilot c550 Portable Navigator (0100052200)


The Garmin C550 is awesome. I've had mine for a few years now. Flew it to Nebraska, rented a car to get around Lincoln, took a trip to Branson Missouri and never got lost. Just put in the address and GO.

Only a few times I've had problems with it. One turn on the unit was too far down the road and into a field. Streets that have bends in them are sometimes considered TURNS. I think it's a matter of mapping and not the unit.

As with any mapping or location device, it's a tool and to be used along with common sense.

New maps come out periodically on DVD and the menu softwares are upgradeable through Garmins website for free.

This is the best money I've ever spent and Garmin, at this time, is constantly rated tops in Consumer Reports.

Garmin 010-10567-11 Mount with 12V Adapter for iQue M5

Garmin 010-10567-11 Mount with 12V Adapter for iQue M5



I love this product, and wish I'd insisted on getting this one when I bought my iQue M5 about a year ago. I'd fought with my original purchase, a stiff uncooperative windshield mount and dreaded when I had to depend on it. It never fit properly on my unusually shaped Subaru Outback VDC dash/windshield. I was relieved when it finally just broke.

This mount stays put, is easy to set up and store and I now actually USE my iQue M5 gps when I'm traveling without anxiety! There is no question that this works better for me!

Garmin 305 Forerunner

Great Deal Garmin 305 Forerunner



I'm in my mid 50s and really got into walking and then running at the beginning of this year. I bought the Forerunner so I could upload my workouts and use it for training, then download the workout information, including that from the heart monitor, to record my progress. I'll admit I'm somewhat of a gadget freak but not overly computer savvy. The Forerunner has worked just like I wanted it to with no problems. There may be a little learning curve, as there is with most instruments, but it is easily acccomplshed. I am very pleased that it makes my workouts easier by alerting me to changing intervals instead of me having to monitor my stopwatch. The information I download contains exactly the data I am looking for. You have to use the Forerunner to see where your paces fall in regard to the categories they have assigned but modifications to your workouts are pretty easy. I considered the Forerunner 205 but purchased the 305 model specifically because I wanted the heart monitor. To help train and keep track of distance, time, speed, heart rate, calories, and other data, I personally have no qualms recommending the Forerunner 305.

After using the Forerunner 305 for about three months I am still very impressed. I can't really add anything to what I said before. The instrument continues to perform as desired and expected, makes adjusting workouts for training easy as performance improves (slowly but surely). Finally, I would encourage new or less experienced runners not to be intimidated by the thought that the Forerunner 305 is too advanced for them, or is for experienced distance runners only. It is highly recommemded for anyone who is serious about their performance as it relates to their health.

Garmin eTrex H Handheld GPS Navigator Overviews

Perfect for outdoor enthusiasts on a budget, the Garmin eTrex H GPS navigator helps you navigate your way through the toughest terrain. The unit is equipped with a high-sensitivity, WAAS-enabled GPS receiver, which locates your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep canyons. The advantage is clear: whether you're traipsing through thick woods or strolling near tall buildings and trees, you can count on the eTrex H to help you find your way when you need it the most. And just like the original eTrex, this little yellow wonder is intuitive and rugged, with a lightweight housing that fits comfortably in the palm of your hand.

The eTrex H is a breeze to use, with five buttons on either side of the navigator facilitating one-handed operation. The four-level gray LCD display, meanwhile, is easy to read in a shade or daylight. And you needn't fret should the weather turn, as the eTrex H is IPX7 waterproof, so it can withstand an accidental splash or dunk in the water and still continue to perform.

Functionally, the navigator stores up to 500 waypoints in its memory for easy retrieval, with names and graphic symbols to highlight the selections. Users will also appreciate Garmin's exclusive TrackBack feature, which lets you reverse your track (up to 20 reversible routes) and navigate back to your starting point. And the automatic track log offers 10 saved tracks (with 10,000 points), along with the ability to retrace your path in both directions. Other details include a hunting and fishing calculator, sun and moon information, and a serial PC interface.

The eTrex H, which runs for up to 17 hours on a pair of AA batteries (not included), measures 2.0 by 4.4 by 1.2 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a one-year warranty.

What's in the Box
eTrex H navigator, wrist strap, quick start guide, user's manual.
