Current best bluetooth GPS

[MarkHewitt]

I stopped using bluetooth GPS a while ago when I bought a dedicated TomTom unit.

But now I'm getting into geocaching and would like to use the map apps on my phone, which being an Nokia N97 is supposed to have built in GPS, but it just doesn't work!

So my question is, what's the best (i.e. smallest, best battery life, best fix) bluetooth GPS on the market these days? I used to have a Holux GPSlim236 and liked that but I assume it will have been surpassed by now?

The 236 is still a very credible performer (if you still have it), the device I tend to use these days is a Columbus V-900 which Luts reviewed Here it does far more than basic GPS reception via Bluetooth as it also offers data logging which might be handy to see where you have been, the voice tagging recording might also be handy for when you get home if you have been looking for multiple locations. Only downside is these units are rather difficult to obtain in the UK but I would seriously consider it for what you want unless your 236 can be brought back in to service - Mike
