Are you guys thick, or what? The Holox BT541 uses the Skytraq Venus 521 chipset which supports AGPS. Skytraq provide a free AGPS download application for Symbian and Windows. Time to lock, and typical accuracy are very good when AGPS is used (can be a bit tempramental without it). Early firmware versions had problems with track drift (firmware is upgradeable, but difficult to find the latest version). The BT541 has a motion detector (sounds like a ball bearing in a box) that allows the device to go into a low power mode when not moving. This can give a battery life of many days depending on usage.

It clearly states that internet forum members will "extract the urine" in the manual , which you clearly haven't read . ::)

If you paid more than 50p you were robbed. :o

But here are three indispensable, I can't manage without it, uses:

1. Of all the suggestions I've seen so far on here, this is the best one. With your house windows open in the hot weather, use it as a door stop to stop any cooling breeze from slamming a door shut. :y

2. During the winter plug it into your laptop and the 0.1W of mighty heat will help keep your house as warm as toast. ;D

3. Finally, when you go on long bike ride and get lost in the middle of nowhere, plug it into your laptop, the GPS will show you where you are so you are no longer lost won't work and you will still be lost, but if you keep cycling for long enough, you will eventually reach the sea somewhere as we are an island. ;D

I HAVE read it, thoroughly, and inwardly digested it: I have been fully compliant with the strictures of that Space Corps Directive since I jouns the Forum, so I do know exactly what to expect.....and you didn't disappoint!  :y 8) :P
