Official response from TravRoute is that it's a different device and it has a different FCC id. Performance wise, very similar.

Hi,

Quick question:

If you have already got say the 3870 or 3970..i.e with Bluetooth.

Does the Bluetooth GPS Receiver give any advantage over the none Bluetooth GPS Receiver?

Thanks


Matt

Yes. it's cable less so you don't have to mess around with cables dangling across your dashboard. Enhancements over Compact Flash for out walking is it has it's own battery source, so unlike Compact Flash, it's not draining the power of the Pocket PC.
