They sold out real fast the last time they got stock of these.

yes please. I am also interested in this, however, I feel that it is unnecessary for me unless it REALLY works well.

I did a little research on the chipset that is used in this device. It uses the Trimble FirstGPS™ architecture [url]http://www.trimble.com/firstgps.html[/url] which is being used in cellphones. It has the same sensitivity as the SiRF chipset. Unfortunately, it's only 8 channel but this should only be a problem in the downtown core of very large cities or inside buildings.
You needed 12 channels when the receivers were not as sensitive as they are now.

This is the company that makes the GPS unit: [url]http://www.f-tech.com.tw/Eng/[/url]
