I am thinking of buying a O2 XDA II PDA, I notice there is a problem with Bluetooth gps units, can anyone tell me if there is a problem with cable gps units?? If not can you recomend which gps unit to buy?

Cheers

cable (serial) GPS should be just fine. When the CF Backpack comes out you will also be able to use CF GPS receivers.

As for the BlueTooth - I am pretty sure O2 and the other providers will force the manufacturer of the XDA2/MDA2 or whatever else it is called to adjust the ROM and add the Serial Port Profile to the Bluetooth stack. Patience...

I am using a Fortuna Clip-On Bluetooth receiver with my XDA II, with TT 2 software with the Ver 2.09 update. It works perfectly without problems.

If you do not use the TT software use the patch from TOWA available at http://bluetooth.i-networx.de, it works fine!
