Well, I use SirfII/Xtrac in the Mio 168 and it works fine -- most of the
time. Sometimes positions 'jump' around, but this happens only under
very heavy canopy.

Have you ever thought, what this millstone may do to your PDA's SD-Slot
if you bump aganist something? Where do you store mapdata and programs,
when the SD-Slot is blocked by this 'thing'?
