GPS would not fix position on arrival. Miserable Customer Service. RMA device fixes position but slowly and something is loose inside.

This review is from: Deluo 31-919-01 Laptop MouseGPS, Mobile Mouse and GPS Device in One (Electronics)

I bought a MouseGPS because I needed a laptop mouse first, and wanted to play around with a GPS. Now I know why Deluo is a GPS maker instead of a mouse maker, because this mouse has broken twice in the same way now. The first one lasted two months of occasional use before the scroll wheel broke. The replacement Deluo sent lasted only a few hours before breaking the exact same way. (was it the same one I sent back or what?) I liked the retractable cord and the feel of the mouse while it worked, but overall it fails as a mouse for not having a reliable wheel.

As a GPS, it works OK. Their own driver software never correctly recognized it, but MS MapPoint did which is all I wanted. Didn't work very well on a cloudy day. It still works as a GPS even with a broken wheel.

I really wanted to like this product, but instead I'm getting a real mouse from a real mouse maker like Logitech or Microsoft, and a separate GPS receiver.

This review is from: Deluo 31-919-01 Laptop MouseGPS, Mobile Mouse and GPS Device in One (Electronics)

Product arrived with software plus a copy of Streets and Trips 2008 upgrade. Product must be switched from mouse function to GPS using a switch on the bottom. Can't use both functions at once.

Aquisition takes about 5 minutes using the diagnostic program, then switch to streets and trips. I found that the cable to the mouse is a little short, so purchased an inexpensive USB extension, although the unit seems to track well laying in the seat next to me.

I also noted that the cord is rather thin, and I'm not sure how long the retractor will last, so I almost always use the extension cable.

GPS location is dead-on, but Streets and Trips doesn't always hit the mark with typed-in addresses or pre-programmed locations.

All-in-all, works well and does what I bought it for.
