All-in-One GPS Solution
"...After doing a lot of research on Internet, finally I have found a all-in-one GPS solution for my travel needs. With this gadget, I can use my Nokia mobile or Samsung Ultra Mobile PC or IBM ThinkPad laptop as a navigation system.
Bluetooth GPS Dock that comes along with the product is extremely useful.
Even though I have bought CF Adapter and PCMCIA Adapter for UMPC and laptop, they are not much of a regular use.... See more

Pros: Size, Price Cons: Difficult for novice to figure out Other Thoughts: I belive Streets and trips does not work because it only supports NMEA 2.0 and Pharos device is NMEA 3.1.

Pros: Works great with Iguidance 3.0 and 4.0 Cons: Can be hard to use for the average computer user, took a little tinkering.

Other Thoughts: I would recommend this to anyone with a carputer or in need of a bluetooth gps device.
