Do any of you own/play with the GPS hardware addons available for Palm/Visor? Any feedback, espicially about accuracy, ease of map importing, battery life, ect?

Thanks,

Yuri.

I don't think the Palm OS is powerful enough for GPS software. Maybe an add-on, but I don't know any. I know there is a German PDA GPS site that says the Newton and maybe a forthcoming Linux based handheld are powerful enough.

It exists. In fact, more than one exists. Search www.handandango.com for GPS.
