4.0 out of 5 stars They work, July 14, 2009

By	Cleatus - See all my reviews

Didnt get em from Amazon, but they do the trick. The serial port way is a bit dated...but its what our systems needed.
If you connect these to your PC, and the mouse starts jumping around- unplug the gps power and it will come back- go to device manager, mice and ponting devices- it shows up in there as Microsoft serial ballpoint. disable this and plug it back in- should work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Much improved, October 8, 2009

By	Larry Ellis (Naperville, Illinois) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This unit is MUCH improved from its predecessor, the GPS 18. This unit is 100 times more sensitive than the GPS 18. I use it inside my home for setting the time on my PC.

The old model seldom locked more than 3-5 satellites and frequently could not even get 2. This newer model locked 8 at first try, all with good signal strength. I've almost never noticed it fail to get a fix indoors (it happened only once, for a very brief period of time).

Well worth throwing the old unit out and replacing it with this one!
