The Mouse that ROARED!
Cracking gadget, extremely sensitive and relatively easy to set up. As I sit in my lounge typing this with the GPS mouse connected I can see that it has a 'fix' with no less than 8 satellites ... INDOORS! Magnetic base, decent length cable and a useful window sucker attachment. An outstanding product at avery good price.

GPS Mouse
CRACKING PRODUCT .... without a doubt the most sensitive GPS receiver I've ever encountered... and I've been into Mountaineering and car GPS since the earliest days so have experienced a wide range of products. Happily picks up many satellites and provides a 'fix' even from inside the house. Set-up was straightforward and the product works brilliantly with Memory Map. Struggling at present to find a way of getting it to link to Google Earth and Google Maps which was on my shopping list of things to do with it .... could be that at present no such facility exists? VERY PLEASED with my purchase, 1st class performance and a quality product for a very sensible price.

Excellent little GPS receiver!!
I bought this item on the glowing reviews I had read all over the internet and I was not disappointed! For the price, the build quality is excellent and the performance is great. It acquires satellite lock very quickly and works out of the box on my Linux system. I notice it even comes with software for Mac OS X. I'd say this is by far the best value USB GPS receiver on the market and have no hesitation in recommending it. Just one word regarding expansys delivery. I chose the economy shipping option which is stated as 3-5 business days. My unit was dispatched on a Tuesday and the unit did not arrive until the following Wednesday (i.e. a week 1 day). The unit appeared to be shipped from Europe which explains the extra long delivery time. Worth bearing in mind if your tossing up whether to pay extra for express delivery or not.
