Robert, thanks for the heads up on the Holux. I went on line and picked one up for $112.00, which included a travel package. I seen them listed as low as $75.00 on EBAY but I haven't been successful negotiating that web site. I appreciate the offer to keep in touch with you regarding the GPS system. There is nobody around here, that I know of, that uses the system. Feel free to bug me at any time. How is your experience with the Holux now that you have had a few days to try it out? I never could figure out why Sendero supported the Bluelogger, due to the difficulty in knowing whether or not it was on. I have had difficulty with it from the start. My son in law and a blind computer technician who lives in Ashland have had the same difficulty with it. It wasn't a matter of holding the button dow for thre seconds. The dam thing would shut down before we could get started. I hope the Holux solves this problem. Anyone interested in buy a Bluelogger? I think Sendero should exchange them for the Holux, especially for those of us who had difficulty with them from the start.
Later, Ken Gerlitz

Hello Ken,
You can purchase the Holux through the Sendero website, or you can call Sheila at Sendero and purchase it through her directly.
the number is 888-757-6810 ext. 102.
I have the blue logger, but at the csun conference, I saw the Holux, and spoke with Mike and Carl and was told that it would do better on buses so I purchased it.
I just received it Friday, so tomorrow will be the first test, but I have a friend who has it, and she is very happy. She used it on the light rail yesterday, and it gave her 9 satellites.
I think you will be happier with the Holux, because it has the switch for turning on where the blue logger does not.
If you have further questions, you can e-mail me off list, I have been using gps for almost 4 years, and I can do my best to help you.
Robert

Hi, I have the Bluelogger bluetooth device and I'm not very happy
with its
performance. Where do you purchase the Holux? Do you have to do
anything
special to get the GPS to recognize the device? Will appreciate
any info. 
you can provide to me regarding this receiver.
Thanks,
Ken Gerlitz

Hi folks!
I have just come back from an exploration of my area and took
the Holux 
slim gp236 I purchased while at csun last week.
I have to report that not only did I receive a signal much more
quickly 
but the very minimum of satellites I had while tracking was 9.
I can remember when we were thrilled with the old Atlas Speaks
gps if we 
had 6 satellites, good, bad or indifferent.
It is just so nice to simply turn the receiver on and go.
