I purchased the gps receiver from mp3car, but cant seem to find the driver. Can someone share this driver w/ me??

It uses a serial-to-usb driver.
The BU353 uses the Prolific driver for this, but the BU303 may not. I don't know.

Hey canibusfan ...

That's the 9x/ME, 2000/XP drivers, plus the GPS info tool and documentation. Any dramas let me know.

No worries, just in luck because i bought a second hand BU-303 on friday and had a hunt for the drivers this weekend also.

Sweet little unit hey? I can't get a lock indoors but outdoors it works a treat with gpsinfo... probably going to give mapmonkey a shot after this.

Btw, anyone got any aussie maps??? I was promised some by the guy who sold the gps device to me, but he can't find it anymore.

Yep. It's the same Prolific USB-to-Serial driver.
You can use Google to find damn near anything. I recommend trying it out.
