BRAND: CELLINK
MODEL: BTG-7000
TYPE:
Works ?: Yes
Startup Time (avg): 45-60 seconds
Personal Rating: 8
Other Comments: Easy to use. Worked right away with bluetooth & 770. Seems to have good battery life. Comes with both wall and car adapter. Documentation stinks, doesn't do a real good job with explaining the flashing LED's, but not to hard to guess what they mean. Battery isn't replaceable through. Great price at newegg.

BRAND: DeLorme
MODEL: Earthmate
TYPE: Bluetooth GPS

Takes about 30 seconds (or less) to fix with maemo mapper.
runs on 3 aaa batteries or its battery pack that fits in the battery compartment.
Works flawlessly all over, even in the woods if it can see sky.
I am elated with the unit; I got the package (with stupid software and cool usb adaptor) for like 70 bucks at Fry's.

kinda bugly fugly big but it works great-

Another vote for this excellent piece of kit. It worked first time, locks on to satellites within 5 seconds and even works indoors. I have no trouble placing this in a secure, hidden part of my car.

Personal rating: 9/10

I purchased one of these devices from www.mobilefun.co.uk and it was delivered within 24 hours. the device is instantly recognised by btplugin and maemo-mapper and works really well. Simple & inexpensive GPS option for the 770. Just waiting for flite to be ported to OS2006 so I can use it for car journeys. Also works fine with Nokia N70 phone (tested it with Wayfinder & Nav4All sofware).
