Hi Jim,
Just out of curiocity, why would you want an external receiver? I do have the Garmin Glo which works well, but I only thought I try it because I'm a Garmin dealer and was able to get it for a bit less than the regular retail price. To be honest I don't find there is a significant improvement in accuracy. I have not yet tested a scenario where I use a GPS app such as Seeing Eye or BlindSquare for 2 hours without the external receiver and then do the same with the external receiver to see if it really makes a big difference with respect to battery life. Keep in mind that most of the receivers that work with the iPhone cost $90 or $100 and you could get an awesome external battery pack for that if battery is your concern. As I said, the iPhone's GPS receiver is a very good one and I don't think you'll get much better accuracy with an external receiver.
