I'm planning to get a gps bluetooth receiver to pair it with my IPAQ RX3715. Is there any compatibility issues which i need to know about? Which GPSrs should i purchase? Would prefer to hear from people who are actually using the device and not just specification based opinions. Am gonna use it for road navigation in malaysia. What sort of accuracy can i expect?

hello bro,

good to know i have a company here...hehe...im too using RX3715....and enquired around the forum....and finally today i got to use my GPS..hehe....

i dont think there is any issue with using the GPS with the system...just one thing la bro.....u have to run Garmin Que and GPS Proxy(if u using non-garmin gpsr) together ...so, might take up some memory ....so, adjust the pda accordingly ...pls, the map from malsing maps....quite big in size also, and have to load the maps onto the pda itself....i dunno how to transfer the Garmin folder to my storage card, eventho the main program is installed in the storage card...

im forgot the model of the GPSr im using...HS01..somthing like that...its just a normal one....cheap as well...im just borrwing my frenz one..to test with my pda....to make sure it works....

accuray wise...very very good i would say....it had spot on the speed i was travelling....and tells u perfectly where to turn n all....

and it re routed whenever i missed the turns.....quite good..and im very satisfied...but one thing i can suggest la .....buy a good GPSr....coz the one im using...takes damn long to get a fix.....

if anythin i could help...pls let me know....
