Anybody using a bluetooth GPS unit to support navigation on a PDA ...

If yes, appreciate if you can mention what hardware and software you
are using ....

Do you gave any reliability issues ... any issues with RF
interference, etc ....

thanks,

I use this rechargeable puck-style bluetooth gps:

It connects to the internal bluetooth in my Dell Axim X51v which runs
Windows Mobile 5. I run the latest XCsoar release and and an in-car
navigation system with this setup. No issues whatsoever over
approximately 50 hours use in both.
