I purchased a holux for my palm t3 since I do alot of traveling.

I use it with mapolois it was very easy to set up. It is also very easy to find out information about it and product support on the web. The gps unit even tracks satellites when it is in the glove box of my car. This gps reciever is a great investiment.

Holux GR 231 bluetooth GPS is a light weight bluetooth enabled GPS receiver with Xtrac firmwire and is based on the popular Sirf II L/P chipset, which gives it extremely high sensitivity and power conservation. This means it is very unlikely that you will lost GPS signals in urban navigation. The rechargeable battery easily lasts for more than 10 hrs for single charge. It is compatible with all bluetooth device. It provides the standard NMEA output and can work with all map software that are NMEA compliant. This receiver works with both Palm OS and Microsoft CE.

Choosing a bluetooth GPS is kind of a tough decision, you aren't quite sure if everything is going to be compatible or not and you definitely don't want to have to buy more than one because one didn't work. Well fear not! This unit works great with my new Palm T|X and Tom Tom 5 software, software sold separately of course. It is very tiny yet it gets a 9 satellite lock from inside my center console! With this and your Palm or Pocket PC you never have to worry about getting lost.

The only trouble I had involved getting it to pair up with the Palm but that may have been the Tom Tom software acting up. Just keep at it and it will work, took me a few minutes and I had to pair the devices a couple times and keep restarting the software.
