RE: A Blindsquare question about constant distance travelled announcements
Thanks, Richard, I will try this. If this is what causes it they should desensitise the shake gesture, I walk very smoothly and have a pretty light step so if shake is triggered by this it’s waytoo sensitive.

RE: BlindSquare Question
Thanks Sieghard for your response. I was thinking about the Garmin Glo or using my existing BTA+ GPS receiver coupled with RoqyBT4 with jalebreak. Again, thanks much. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Wednesday, March 06, 2013 11:30 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: BlindSquare Question Hi Jim, Which external GPS receiver do you have? There are only about 4 of them which work with the iPhone: the Bad Elf which comes either in a 30-PIN version or a Bluetooth version, approx.. $100 to $150. One I had never heard about before, the "Emprum UltiMate GPS Receiver", $105 on Amazon.com The Dual X150 Bluetooth GPS Receiver, $90 at GPSCentral.com the Garmin Glo, $100 at GPSCentral.com Garmin, the world's leading provider of GPS equipment, announced their latest shot in the GPS wars. The all-new Garmin GLO is a small gray box that serves as a GPS accessible via a Bluetooth-enabled iPhone or iPad (okay, Android devices, too). This $99 device enables pilots and drivers to keep track of their position without the hassle of adding another screen. The GLO is Apple approved to work with its products. Interestingly, the GLO uses not only GPS satellites but also the Russian version of GPS called GLONASS - an additional 24 location beacons. This provides rapid location, 20% faster than competing devices. Position updates 10 times per second seems excessive but will certainly be popular for performance junkies. Overall, the additional satellite coverage means more robust positioning. The GLO's internal battery lasts for 12 hours, or it can run off ship power (cable included in the aviation bundle). In my opinion the Garmin GLO sounds like it would be one of the better ones to try and it would be my first choice if I wanted an external GPS receiver.

RE: BlindSquare Question
Hi Jim, Which external GPS receiver do you have? There are only about 4 of them which work with the iPhone: the Bad Elf which comes either in a 30-PIN version or a Bluetooth version, approx.. $100 to $150. One I had never heard about before, the "Emprum UltiMate GPS Receiver", $105 on Amazon.com The Dual X150 Bluetooth GPS Receiver, $90 at GPSCentral.com the Garmin Glo, $100 at GPSCentral.com Garmin, the world's leading provider of GPS equipment, announced their latest shot in the GPS wars. The all-new Garmin GLO is a small gray box that serves as a GPS accessible via a Bluetooth-enabled iPhone or iPad (okay, Android devices, too). This $99 device enables pilots and drivers to keep track of their position without the hassle of adding another screen. The GLO is Apple approved to work with its products. Interestingly, the GLO uses not only GPS satellites but also the Russian version of GPS called GLONASS - an additional 24 location beacons. This provides rapid location, 20% faster than competing devices. Position updates 10 times per second seems excessive but will certainly be popular for performance junkies. Overall, the additional satellite coverage means more robust positioning. The GLO's internal battery lasts for 12 hours, or it can run off ship power (cable included in the aviation bundle). In my opinion the Garmin GLO sounds like it would be one of the better ones to try and it would be my first choice if I wanted an external GPS receiver.
