GPSlim240 Bluetooth GPS Receiver from Holux
Published on October 9th, 2006 in bluetooth, gps navigation
Holux just introduced a new bluetooth GPS receiver with a very slim form factor and a really low power consumption. Called GPSlim 240 this device is multi-functional, even though it is called a bluetooth GPS receiver it can also act as a traditional GPS receiver that can deliver a satellite signal through a data cable to a device without Bluetooth interface.
With low power consumption, GPSlim240 tracks 20 satellites at a time, re-acquires the satellite signal every tenth of a second and updates position data once a second. The power saving mode (Trickle-Power) allows the unit to operate a fraction of the time. It also provides a time and position fix function (Push-to-Fix) that will switch on the unit at a designated time, even when the receiver stays off.
GPSlim240 should cost you about $100 - and for that money here is what you’ll get in the box: GPSlim240, car charger, tool CD, quick guide, and a warranty card.
