Surprising performance,
I was looking for a Bluetooth gps for use with my blackberry 8320 Curve. I heard some favorable comments about this one on a forum, and decided to check it out. It is surprising small and very simple to operate: just press a little recessed button, and it powers up and searches for satellites, and gives a solid Bluetooth connection. I haven’t had a single problem; reliability has been 100%. It even powers down when an application is no longer communicating with it. Battery life hasn’t been an issue for me. I just charge it up at the end of the day. I have a ball cap that has a small zippered pocket, which has been perfect for toting the gps. I’ve also found that having a ‘remote’ gps like this one is great for when in the car. I just throw my hat (containing the gps) on the dash board, and gives the gps a clear view of the satellites, whereas other self-contained devices would not have a clear view sitting in the middle of a car. All in all, a great addition to your blackberry, especially if using the free Google Maps with actual satellite imagery– just amazing!

|Drastic improvement in phones that are GPS enabled,
I am an engineer so specifications are important to me. I also own another Globalsat device (TR102 personal gps tracker) which works perfectly so this was an easy choice for me.
The BT-368i contains the most powerful GPS engine (Sirf Star III). For those who own standard gps units, you would notice that “urban canyons” cause the gps signals to drop off. Also, standard gps units would show fluctuations and large errors and also movement when you are stationary. The Sirf Star III eliminates all these problems. Many times I would lock on to 9 or even 10 satellites with an error of just 6m (20ft) – even driving through large buildings or areas with tree coverage.
I have a Nokia e71 with internal gps (which works better than my Garmin and Lowrance handhelds). My phone gps works fine alone but I get a 300% improvement in accuracy and lock-on when I connect with the Globalsat unit.
I was also happily surprised by how small, thin and sleek the design was. I paired it with my phone in a few seconds. It even shuts off automatically if I turn my phone bluetooth off.
The battery also lasts for many hours (I have never experienced a dead battery yet even after 4 hours of continuous use). Excellent product!

|Fast Accurate GPS Receiver,
Great Product. Works seamlessly out of the box with Google Earth. I suggest using Franson GpsGate for other software such as streets and trips. It will save you much time setting up, and allow you to run multiple applications using gps data.
The GPS locks on very quickly on cold starts and almost instantly on a warm start. I have never recieved less than 5-6 sats at any time.
