 Amazon Adverstisement is Incorrect! January 20, 2008

The ad title is misleading! The ad says "USB PS2" gps. If you order this product you will receive a USB-only GPS.
Works but has no useable output. December 12, 2007

The receiver is a good size and works as a land based gps with a laptop though not obvious how to initialize it. I was disappointed to learn that it has no standard output data sentence structure (NMEA 183) for to support an autopilot. Overall it was not used by me for this reason.
 Works wonderfully November 5, 2007
Works great with Microsoft Streets and Trips. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because it was a bit difficult to install. Did not come with good directions on finding the right driver on the CD. But it's very quick to acquire a signal and is very accurate, which is the most important part.
Works well October 28, 2007
Worked the first time I installed the driver and connected into the usb port. I used this with GooPs and worked flawlessly. One minor issue I had at first was the included GPSviewer, it won't get any data from the GPS, turned out my laptop gave a COM port above 10 (COM12) but the GPSviewer can only get up to COM10. Just use a third party software, will work in any port assigned.
Over all I'm a happy camper, a good buy :-)
 Holux GR 213 September 18, 2007
I used this in Europe with MS Autoroute and it worked great. I also had a Garmin GPS 18 receiver and the Holux was able to keep signal when the Garmin would loss signal. the only time i lost signal was when i went into tunnels. I did have to reconfigure the receiver a few times when i would first start up. the port is serial so if you have mulitple USB ports it has to be plugged into the same one that you configured it with.
