Sehr einfache Instalation

Finger Weg von dieser GPS Maus.Ein GPS Empfänger der so langsam ist und Ausfahrten erst 300-500 Meter nach der Ausfahrt erkennt,im Kreisverkehr völlig die Orientierung verliert und neu zu berechnen beginnt ist völlig unbrauchbar.Ich frage mich wer den Vergleich zum SirF3 Chipsatz gemacht hat?Mein PDA mit eingebautem Sirf3 Chip der ca.50cm von der Autoscheibe weg war hatte einen besseren Empfang und war weit schneller als der Venus 6 Chip in dieser Maus und das obwohl sie direkt an der Autoscheibe lag.Da sieht man es mal wieder:Man sollte sich nicht auf irgendwelche Testergebnisse verlassen.Mit dieser GPS Maus ist eine gute Navigation fast unmöglich!Der oder die Tester sollten sich besser mit Dingen beschäftigen von denen sie mehr verstehen.

This receiver is more stable than the GPS receivers based on the Sirf chipset. I am currently using a Sirf based receiver on my boat which is very unstable and in my view not very suitable to give positions for slow moving objects. The initial test with this receiver has shown that it gets to a fix quicker and that the position is more stable. One disatvantage is that is sometimes recognized as a mouse. This however can be prevented by using port blocking software.
