Found a cheap reciever, what do you think?

Försedd med magnet för enkelt fastsättning. Lämplig för bil, båt, flyg och APRS-positionering. Kabellängd 2 m. Lev. utan kartprogram. Storlek 58x42x21 mm. Kräver Windows 98SE, eller senare.

that is Swedish

GPS-reciever, USB. 12 Channel reciever with built-in antenna. Supports NMEA-0183 v2.2. Magnet attached for easy attaching . Suitable for car, boat, air and APRS-positioning(whats that?). 2m cable, no program. Size 58x42x21mm. Supports win98se and later. costs ~125

haven't tried any delorme products, was gonna buy one of their GPS recievers that came with mapping software, however after looking for reviews i read that it wasnt very accurate...it would place your vehicle in a building, or 2 blocks from where u were at...
