The u2 big, also has a built in gps receiver. Think its the u2 models,
and the voice sense qt, and the onhand, that has the receiver.

GPS RECEIVER
Perhaps there is some confusion about which models have built-in GPS, and
which models require an external device. The U2 Mini and BrailleSense
OnHand I believe are the two models that have built-in GPS. The other
models don't, as far as I am aware, and require something you can pair
with
it.
I haven't played with GPS on my U2 Mini much to be frank. When I did look
at the beginning, I found a weak signal. It isn't one of the reasons why
I
bought it to start with since I use my phone for that purpose when I want
to.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

Yes, Braille Sense does havef an internal GPS. Nobody seems to have got a
good enough signal with it over here; but I do have an older Holux which
gives me another throw at the dice.

Hi,
I didn't think Braille Sense had any internal GPS; if it does, it's never
worked for me!
Cheers,
Mike

hi carol the internal gps is rubbish so you have to use an external one.
then all will be great it is very very good. the maps that's google maps
must have a wireless connection but it works and is fine.

Hi all,
Has anyone tried the above and, if so, how have you found the Braille
Sense to work? Is the GPS receiver OK here in the UK for you, and what do
you think of Google Maps on the Sense?
I haven't got a fix with my GPS receiver yet but I'm going to find a time
to persevere and also to take a look at the maps for myself, but thought
I'd
ask if anyone has tried this and what your experience has been?
