it is not nmea compliant.

since you have bluetooth, i'd suggest a bluetooth gps receiver.

there are many to choose from, and the beauty of bluetooth gps receivers is that they are not device specific -- you can use them with pocketpc, laptop, etc

you can also go the the last page to read the conclusion.

hope this helps

Alimentation, eh? Either you're a gastroenterologist, more than 100 years old, or English isn't your lingua prima... :-)

Keeping the UX50 charged is easy enough to do through a Sony (or 3rd party) car charger adapter.

I'll not even consider Italian, but have a look in a car spares store. I just got a cigarette lighter multi-way. It's like a 4 way adapter for the mains, but works off the car lighter giving me 3 car lighter sockets - enough to charge the gps and clie and keep my coffee warm as well!

I've been looking for one of those - where did you find it?
