Is the included GPS the BU353S4 with the SIRF IV chipset or is it the BU353 with the SIRF III chipset?

my problem was not with the chip set or GPS, rather, with the DeLorme software - which could not recognize at stop and re-start from there. I would pull into a gas station and the sfw would not recognize that I had achieve that stop. So when I rode off to the next stop it kept trying to take me back to the stop I had "missed"

Sorry I cannot answer your question. This was a gift to someone who already uses a GPS.

Need to buy separately. I'm not sure whether it's available from Farmin as this model GPS is discontinued. Even if it is you can probably find it at a lower price by doing an Internet search for it b

I just ordered it today so I can answer the question in a few days. I did this based on an FAQ at gpscity.com about part 010-11314-50. They said they are the same map, the part number is different because of packaging. I ordered the southeast DVD from Amazon a while back. Part 010-11319-50 does not appear on anything I received but the DVD is labeled Version 2.00.

FYI: I ordered a Garmin 660 and received it today. When I registered the product, it offered me a free download of 2009 maps, which I am presently downloading (takes a long time, even with a fast connection).

This Lenovo model does have a GPS chip. There isn't a model with 3G at this time.

I baught one of these. The first thing thry did was send the wrong unit (model) Only after a great deal of hell-raising did they agree to send the one I wanted.. the first one did not have the gps function. it did have the 3d imaging but I would not call it 'side imaging'. the replacement unit they sent had the gps function (for which I had to purchase software) and did not have the 3d imaging feature. My advice to you .... be very sure before you order.

I wondered about that too .. although I'd trust Garmin's website and other 3rd party discussion sites ... the ?70 units are built to contain maps for both continents, and the ?80 are the first one's with MSN Direct.Perhaps there'll be a future ?90 (390/690) range that combines the two sets of new features? :)For now, I'm just wondering whether tot ake the plunge with the 660 and its FMt raffic/preloaded POIs, or wait for the MSN-direct 680 to be released (April?)!

Yes, the GPSs both have the same data output sentences over UART according to the standards set by the National Marine Electronics Association

Everything is included to do what you want; at what could be considered a low price. We have both this and a dedicated gps. It's probably best used by a co-pilot or for trip planning in unfamiliar territory. For straight forward trips where the destination address is already known, a dedicated GPS is much easier to use and a whole lot safer.

Any Gps card that fits will work just have to soft reset the unit after it's installed

A charger was included. I charge it after each 18 hole round; but the instructions indicate 2 rounds. I don't know what you mean by the GPS is not included. Mine acquires the satellite and finds the course.

I just updated from 1.3 to 1.5.0 for the firmware. Garmin has it's own separate version number.

Not in the US. The European version has GPS, but the US version does not Joseph May Techtrackr.com

Hi, the SPX 7800BT is newer than the one I bought but if you ask me about mine, I would say it's fair. I see that in the new one they have the GPS built in instead the external USB. I would definitely go for the new one to be always up to date.
