Hi,
I purchased this morning, and after a bit of fiddling, I got it working. The main problem for me was that it wouldn't work with COM14. I use bluetooth, which means that I don't have any other ports (other than COM4, which I use for netstumbler) available. I had to disable bluetooth, and used COM9 to get it working. Maybe you could take a look at that?

Also, I'm not sure if this is to do with the comfoolery setup, but on a test drive, on occasion, the location would jump to somewhere a few hundred miles away and then back, making the track look a bit wierd!

Other than that, it works great, and thanks a lot for making it work with comfoolery!

BTW, I have an Etrex Vista GPS, set to NMEA IN/OUT, at 4800. I also have a Magellan GPS315, but will have to get it out when I get home to try it.
