I'm looking a GPS unit for my (future) X50v. I'm looking around and find out that Holux 231 is quite affordable on ebay. Does anyone have any experience on this unit. Please give me some pros and cons of the unit.

I really appreciate every comment.

I'm using the Holux 231 with my x50v and it works fine. This is the only bt gps I've ever used so I don't know how it compares to other models but I have nothing to complain about. It finds the satelites very fast and works fine. When I was touring Cleveland I just had the gps unit in my bag running all the time and whenever I needed directions I turned on my Axim.

The only annoyance, which I believe is true for all bt gps's are the lights. It would be nice if at normal operation the gps would have all this leds on and blinking. Can be anoying when driving at night.

I've got the 231 and am super pleased. My car has a windshield coating, but this receiver is able to "see" past that. My previous Globalsat BT-308 needed an external antenna to get the satellite signals. I have had no problems with that unit.
