HOLUX GPS
this product was recommended to me by a friend for my boat. I purchased this gps to work with a marine software for navigation of the great lakes. we have just completed a 500 km trip from Ottawa to Georgian bay over a 10 day period. the gps performed perfectly. there was not a single time that it let me down. the software was easy to install and the unit was automatically recognized every time i plugged it in to my notebook computer.
Pros: simple,easy, and compact Recommend: YES Tag: holux gr 213 gps review, gr 213 gps review

A GREAT GPS.
I have Holux bluetooth GPS and was very impressed with it's performance so I bought 2 of the GR 213's for another project and was not disappointed. I have used a dozen different models and manufacturers mobile GPS units and this one rocks. Getting a location lock is quick and reliable. This unit keeps a lock when most other units are back searching for the satellites again. Highly recommended.
Pros: quick locks and stays locked under most conditions Cons: none so far. Recommend: YES Tag: holux gr 213 gps review, gr 213 gps review

WORKS ON VISTA
The driver CD shipped with the product doesn't contain drivers for Vista. You can get a working driver (tested on Vista 32 bit) from the Holux website: http://www.holux.com/JCore/en/products/products_download.jsp ?pno=273
This driver is for the GR-213U but works fine with the plain GR-213 I have here. Dunno if it works on 64 bit though.
Pros: very fast signal acquisition Cons: none so far Recommend: YES Tag: holux gr 213 gps review, gr 213 gps review

HOLUS GR 213 GPS USB
Super fast delivery across Canada, and lots of support for a (almost) illiterate computer person. Super product for use with our marine PC Navigation programs.

AWESOME PRODUCT!
I love the ease of use of the product. I am writing my own application and needed something to use for the prototype. It was too simple to get going: just plugin and install a driver (I'm using XP but driver isn't required on Vista)
Not only am I impressed with the product, the speed of delivery across Canada was quite impressive!

Works great for me. Compatible with MapPoint 2002/2004 and Sreeets and Trips 2006 - Microsoft. Personally I like Streets and Trips better. In fact I didn't try MapPoint 2006.
