- The GPS receiver is about 2 inches by 2 1/4 inches in size (50x59mm) with a height of 3/4 inch (20mm).
- The base of the receiver is both rubberised and magnetic, to stop the mouse escaping when taking sharp bends
- A Buick Century with a shiny plastic dash board there was little to stop the GPS skittering around.

Works great!,

This review is from: Rikaline GPS-6010 USB GPS receiver for laptop notebook PC WAAS (Electronics)
I found the Rikaline 6010 GPS unit while looking for a nice dedicated gps module. It supports the standard NMEA protocol, and my unit has a permanent usb cord, though I know there are models with interchangable interfaces for pda's and serial connections.For USB connectivity, it uses the PL2302 serial to usb chipset, which has drivers for linux and mac OS X (windows and osx drivers included with the cd). I've used it under both of those with much success, and I feel safe in assuming that it works just as well under windows. The unit itself is very nice, has a rubberized magnetic base, and the cord is a nice length. If you need greater sensitivity for indoor application, or "urban canyons" check out the "X5" version of the Rikaline 6010. I'm very satisfied with this product, and I think it will make for a nice component of my homebrew car computer system.

Ordered this for my Dad. The CD with the drivers was a coaster, so he needed to track down the drivers. The only manual on the site is in Chinese, and he said it was no small effort for him to get the laptop to detect the device. All that said, he said it seems to work fine now. I think this device is not buyer beware, but it's the least expensive for a reason at the same time.

[...]What impresses me is that it's weatherproof, fairly accurate, and quite inexpensive. So far at least, I think this is simply an excellent buy. Of course if you're looking to try this unit out indoors or under other difficult conditions, you should be looking for something else.
