    I wish someone would bring me a new GPS, was it free for nothing?

    I'm not posh enough for an Oregon...I'm hoping this is a step in the right direction, a bit better than phone-alone

    Yep, its a portable blue tooth GPs unit - I bought this very model on "Amazon" after Dr Dick gave a tutorial about them - blue tooth to mobile phone and "enable" the mock GPS signal after disabling the phone's GPS unit - saves battery by not using the phone's built in GPS and is more accurate using more satellites ! useful for ad hoc caching when out shopping with "she who must be obeyed" ""

    You did well - mine cost £30.00 !! - works ok but could not thread a lanyard through the little tiny hole ! I bought some sticky velcro and now have it hanging from the strap of phone lanyard

    Is that the Bluetooth Unit?
    What unit are you going to use it with?
