My new GPS reciever!

[Tom]

Just arrived, £25.

Its a holux 240 but white.
Best GPS ive ever owned, picks up stupidly quick from cold.

Oh and its a bit small!

Very cool and a good price. My brother bought the Holux receiver that Orange are selling cheaply although I think it cost £5 more than yours.

hold on fella, yours is a 20 channel gps receiver right?

im lookign at the M1200 as thats a 32 channel gps receiver.

Would there be much difference in it?

 

[Tom]

Just channels, they both only do 16 satellites but can receive multiple signals.

Exactly the same size, just battery chipset and cost...
