Works well with Verizon XV6800

 

I wish the people who make the chargers for all these gadgets would label them. This charger is for the phone, this one for the GPS, etc etc.....so many gadgets all the chargers start looking alike after a while.

I charged it up, configured the blue tooth on my Verizon XV6800 (windows mobile 6) to talk to it, loaded up the mobile version of google maps and told google maps to "track location"...which means it talks to the GPS unit and displays your position on...

A little larger then I thought it would be, but still pretty compact

I like it

 

This Itrek pairs with my computer nicely and I just paired it with my blackberry. My blackberry can download google maps and the Itrek works with google maps. Seems to be very accurate. Great product and great price. I'm back on the bleeding edge

Great GPS

 

Great buy, can't go wrong.

Syncs up easy enough, use it with my HTC Wing and windows Live maps. would suggest this to anyone as long as they know a fair amount about computers

Might as well sent no paperwork, the instruction CD is mostly for show. takes along time to start connection with sats

Great

 

Had some issue configuring Windows Mobile 5, but was not the problem of this device. Then worked great.

Has worked flawlessly. Tracks well even in bad weather and when in heavily wooded areas. Also, the battery lasts for a day

Good things come in small packages

 

I did have to pull the battery (as mentioned in the instructions) when I traveled with the unit off. It wouldn't return a fix until I did.

Works great with my Nokia N800 Internet Tablet and Maemo Mapper. Easy to pair and setup. Everything has been great. Amazing battery life - 15 hour drive without any charge

In normal operation the LEDs on the front flash to indicate that it has acquired the fix. I found that a little distracting on the dashboard, so I just flipped it upside-down. It slides around a little more upside-down because the LEDs are a little...

Amazing

 

Pairing it with my Asus A626 pda with TomTom Nav.6 installed. Syncs up within a few seconds and gives me uninterrupted signals. I sometimes even keep it in my backpack while i am walking and get a great signal that way.

Great battery life, Incredible reception, Quick pairing, Very small and lightweight, USB power plug very versatile and cord friendly

Might give a little bit of wandering if it does not have a strong signal. Amuzing to watch the map twist and turn while standing still. Settles down once you actually start moving

Awesome GPS for the money

 

This thing works amazingly. I have it tethered to my AT&T 8525 and it works flawlessly with many different WM6 apps. Easy to setup, and so far battery life on the unit is decent as well

No bundled software, but for the price, what do you expect

Consumer review (newegg.com)

works great

 

I primarily use it connected to my Audiovox PPC 6600 using Google maps and Streets and trips. Both work well.

Extremely easy to use. It can be charge it while using it, but you won't need to ; I drive 150 miles a day. It has no problem working a few days in a row before having to charge. It works with Map Point 2006 for talking turn-by-turn instructions Via...
