[gps-talkusers] Re: Announcing Holux M1000

You h ave to spend the money to get the better shipping.:) I don't use amazon any more it takes to long to ship items and they no longer handle their own goods. I recently ordered a GPS and spend themoney to have it over nighted. The vendor kept my extra shipping funds and sent the package ground. Stay away from amazon.:)

All the GPS on Amazon seem to have a four to six week delivery time so
what's the value of the cheapness.

Well, first don't forget there's a custom case and shipping / handeling
involved. Remember also that online shippers sell thousands of these items 
and get far deeper discounts.  Imagine trying to buy against Amazon for
example.:)

Maybe the custom case has something to do with it.

Have a great day,

So you are saying it sells for $50 online but for Sendero users

it's $99??

Huh??  Also, will the 236 battery fit the m1000 so you could use

that for a

spare if necessary?  Jim

Sendero is constantly testing various GPS receivers.  We have

been using

the Holux M1000 for several months and have now switched from

the 236 to

the M1000.  We do not have the M1000 modified at all.  You can

purchase it

on-line for around $50 plus shipping and tax if applicable.



We now ship the M1000 with new GPS packages.  It of course comes

with a

custom case so you can easily put it on a shoulder strap.



It works fine at the pedestrian speeds, something we tested a

lot.


Its major benefit is its battery life and greater sensitivity.

It will

acquire faster and pick up better among buildings or within

single story

buildings.



It is almost exactly the same size as the 236.  It has a slide

switch for

power and uses the same charger and battery as the 236.  The

battery life

seems to be about double that of the 236.



I am currently in New York to be on Good Morning America live

Tuesday

morning.  This is a pretty good test bed for this new receiver.



I believe the Sendero price is $99 for Sendero users.  Sheila

will know for

sure.  I like it a lot.
