Where do you shop for GPS receivers?

Howdy,

I am looking at getting my first GPS receiver (holux gr-213) and using it with my Toughbook CF-28. I was wondering where most people shopped online, and experiences you have had (good or bad).

Thank you

Well. Mp3car quoted me $183.02 or £92.72 for us brits.

Disgusting really. Especially when i've bought one for £23 delievered!

I know mp3car has a profit margin to work with, but can't they buy them in their thousands wholesale for cheaper?

Don't take this the wrong way at all, it would be cheap if i lived in the US.

Thanks
