For less battery drain and improved performance, you should use an
external bluetooth receiver.

Subject: [gps-talkusers] How well does mobile geo work?

I'm thinking about getting either mobile geo or brailleNote GPS to
replace my SenseNav, since GW have dropped the ball in regards to
updates.  I'm leaning towards mobile geo due to the portability and
small size of a cell phone.  However I have several issues.

1.  Battery life.  Using a bluetooth receiver plus things like WiFi must
drain the phone's battery quickly.  What kinds of results have others
had?

2.  No braille display

3.  Since Sendero is lisencing the product and not building it
themselves, it could suffer from the same lack of updates as SenseNav.
 However I understand that the features of Sendero GPS version 5 are
available for mobile geo, whereas SenseNav hasn't been updated in well
over a year.

Thoughts and suggestions would be apreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Eric
