Best USB GPS Receiver?

Hey guys I'm just trying to figure out what would be the best gps receiver to buy. I want something that's affordable, accurate, and good quality.

Thanks!

Thanks!

I made my own. You fill a shallow cooking pan with water, and float a hollowed out nut on the surface. The Earth's rotation, your destination, and the tensile surface strength of the water always keep the nut pointing in the direction I need to go.

I'm not sure how it works, I think it's similar to those water-finding sticks. I'm working on a head's up display version. It's just a pain wearing swimming goggles, to keep the water out of my eyes....

People are being like this because ALL OF THIS HAS BEEN COVERED BEFORE!!!

Plus, how can we tell you what the best GPS receiver is...

It's almost like asking, "hey guys, I'm looking for the best car aaround..."

You're gonna get sooooooooooooo many different answers, you'll be back at step one...

Do some searching and figure it out!

Peace,

Rafster

look at the gps receivers available on at the mp3car store and then search those product names in the forum ... read up on the threads and u'll find comparisons against other receivers and u'll come to a faster and better conclusion yourself.

good luck

The BU-353 is a good choice. It's the most popular too. http://www.mp3car.com/store/product_...roducts_id=147
