Couldn't Get Any Better

With the current technology that is! I like this much better than my previous receiver. Most of the dead spots with my last one, ended up coming up with this one. Not sure if the waterproof part works, although I'm sure it does because the reception is awesome!

excellent

It has perfromed as advertized. Software was easy to install and the GPS position showed quickly includeing DGPS. I've been using it for about a month with Nobeltec 8.2 on a laptop and am very pleased with the results.

Great GPS Receiver on budget!!

When I was looking for a GPS receiver to go with my Asus EEE PC 4G, I read the reviews I could find and decided i go with BU-353 GPS receiver. My order turned up quickly at my door, installed the drivers and then plugged it into my Asus EEE PC 4G. It registered the location with 8 satelites!
We took it on a test drive and very much please with the performance. I would recommend it to friends & others.

Great unit

I purchased this as a replacement for my GPS that came with Microsofts Streets and Trips. What wonderful unit. It starts to track in about half the time as my other unit.
It even picks up the satelites indoors for me. Unlike my other unit that would loose tracking under an outdoor canopy.
I also like the magnet on the back of the receiver that holds it in place on my dash or any other metal object. No more sticking suction cups to the windshield. i cant recommend this product enough.
