    Luke,

    So does this thing need an antenna to use the navigation?

    I run this program on my Nokia E65 to time my laps at the ring.

    the GPS reciever i have though is crap, do you think this pioneer unit might work for me?

    too bad it can't record video either, i need to figure out a stealth way to record my laps :)

        Hooray! 2 days of correct operation, except for one bluetooth fuckup, which I think was my fault from pairing with yet another deck.

        Nav still takes at least 5 minutes to get antenna signal though.

        Gonna drop $20ish on a new antenna with the correct connector, see if that helps.

        Closing SOON!

            He's being mysterious...my bet is he waits until the picnic. I think he did what I've been thinking about doing for a little bit now.

              Nothing to take pics of really, just a dumb ass Pioneer nav shoved into the front cubby, held in by metal straps and doublestick tape.

              I fixed my damn antenna, now it freeking ROCKS nav...but I broke the microphone for the bluetooth!

              Fark!
